Digitally Enhanced Love

Digitally Enhanced Heart

Robots cannot love,
Human hearts are worthless,
Neither is enough,
And the whole world is left clueless.

He found her in the trash,
Broken deep within,
She could not speak or laugh,
Her breathing was so thin.

He decided to repair her,
For he was an engineer.
Her body bruised and hurt,
That it almost brought him tears.

She finally opened her eyes,
Looking at the ceiling.
As her chest began to rise,
She felt her scars were healing.

He let out a little smile,
They introduced themselves,
The sun outside shone bright,
And she thanked him for his help.

Robots cannot love,
Human hearts are worthless,
Neither is enough,
And the whole world is left clueless.

One day the man was sad,
As he slowly said, "I'm home..."
The fixed robot was glad,
Although she was a drone.

"Work today was horrible;
The deadline was moved up.
The pressure was unbearable,
and I think I've had enough!"

The robot woman smiled,
And they sat down to eat.
The man said, "This taste's nice;
It's like you made a feast."

"Well, I made it just for you,
Because you've been so kind.
After all that I've been through,
You brought me back to life."

The robot was so happy,
To have someone that cared.
Since artificial eyes look glassy,
All she could do was stare.

He looked at her sweet face,
And her automatic smile.
This all seemed out of place,
For she was supposed to die.

Robots cannot love,
Human hearts are worthless,
Neither is enough,
And the whole world is left clueless.

Many years had passed,
And the two still lived together.
The man was growing older,
But the robot stayed the same forever.

One day, the man did tell her,
"I love you, oh so much,
I can't bear to see you hurt,
And I think I am in love."

The robot was so quiet,
And she told him, "Oh my sweet,
Sweet friend, I cannot hide it,
You make my words grow weak.

But I care for you a lot,
Although my heart is metal,
And I am a robot,
I'm glad you are so genial."

The two simply smiled,
A robot and a man.
Things are same left and right,
But it's nice to take a chance.

Perhaps robots can love,
And not risking might be worthless,
Both might be enough,
Though many are still clueless.
