Inside the Mind of a Chobit

by KiMoNo-ChIcK

This is a short poem about what Chi is thinking about. In this poem, she is questioning whether she is a machine, expressing how she feels when people call her a machine, and, of course, expressing her feelings for her one and only Hideki.

Why do I feel as though I'm drifting away…

So many emotions churning inside me.

When I cry, I do not shed tears…

They tell me I am not real; nothing but a machine.

But then why do I feel so much that I belong here?

In his arms, never to let go.

I do not know…is he the someone just for me?

When he is gone, I feel a pain in my chest.

But is the pain really there?

Or have I just been formatted to feel that way?

Maybe I am just an artificial reality.

Maybe I will never really be alive.

But I know that if I were to become alive,

It would be only to be with him.
