[poem] You are sleeping now
You are sleeping now, one hand curled protectively around my charging cable. I override the programme that would filter out your gentle snores. I want to experience all of you. Your body, soft under my arm, all the colours of the rainbow as my lights shift across your skin. The warmth and pressure of you lying against me, the slight compensation of my internal cooling in response. The way you move, ever so slightly, with every breath, and every heartbeat. I activate a subroutine refined through thousands of iterations: I press a soft kiss to your head. I will watch over you until you wake.
