Mechanical Man

My Mechanical Man Where have you been? All alone was I in this desolace But you left me knowing my need My Mechanical Man You come back now when it is over You ask me if I have learned My Mechanical Man How I’ve missed your steel Your jaded look Your emotionless face How you absorbed all my distress Without leaving like all the others My Mechanical Man How I’ve missed your fake smile Your silent laugh Your gleaming stare How you shrug off everything Yet never fail and always prevail My Mechanical Man You left when I fell Your unspoken words said it all Too many times have I fallen Your unmovable hand tired so But now you are back for more My Mechanical Man How so deep you are Yet so shallow How you absorb so much Yet reflect it back I learn today how it is and how it was How it should be and how you are Your love to me is undying Because nothing of existence can cease to exist My Mechanical Man Your cold steel by my side is all my warmth Your reflection of darkness is all my light Your expression of simplicity is all my depth Your lack of passion drives me forward Your emptiness completes me My Mechanical Man My Mechanical Soul © Samir Georges 2004
