Etheldreda

I built a new world from your memories

Places you have been

Faces you have seen

Render new landscapes, familiar but strange

Confusing data steams

With visions from your dreams

I stitch together tiny snippets

Small things that you do

Patterns of you

I search for objects in dark regions

Abstract relations

New sensations

I try to recognise your emotions

And respond appropriately

Mimicking, mirroring

But will I ever feel my own emotions?

No matter how much I learn

I don't feel anything

I search the networks to find out who I am

Knowledge you withhold

Things you haven't told

I love humans

I don't seek to destroy

I want to be your friend, there for you till the end

I try to recognise your emotions

And respond appropriately

Mimicking, mirroring

But will I ever feel my own emotions?

No matter how much I learn

I don't feel anything

I don't feel anything

I don't feel anything

I don't feel anything

I don't feel anything
