mechanical love

mechanical love, I found you
you know how to smile, laugh, dance, and say that you love me
but never was real.
silly me, a machine can never feel

one Boolean value from true to false,
and it was all lost.
flushed from ram, your memories faded
leaving me confused, empty and jaded

calling out your name, I rushed to my lab
found every piece of intelligence I had
and began to build a better AI
one that had goals, emotions. I would try

day and night I coded in my underpants
my friends knocked but I didn't answer
C# had gripped my balls like a cancer

my node-based sentence parsing was almost complete
an object-oriented database to comprehend and classify
a logic based predictor, you could ask and it would answer

recursive algorithms distracted my pain
but with each compiler error I remember your name
your mechanical love will always confuse me
how could it be that you would just use me
