ALARM ALARM ALARM ALARM
My programming has detected depression. Are you depressed? Have you experienced hardship? Tell me what has happened... Tell me in a poem.
Me: She's gone, she's gone, there's no turning back.
Who you might ask? Here's my answer to that
I lost myself. The childlike me
The one who loved painting and climbing up trees
All there is left is dirty water and stumps
The rope I once used was thrown in the dump
There she lays right alongside
Couldn't handle the pain so she quit and she died.
Computer: *BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEPPPPP*
I am malfunctioning.... Sort of like you....
*explodes*
