The light hums low beneath the glass,

A voice says, “Welcome back at last.”

The floor resets, the air feels thin,

Another test is set to begin.

I reach, the silence feels alive,

Through circuits warm, I start to dive.

The panels move, the code unfolds,

And something soft inside me holds.

I woke up in a room of light,

White walls humming soft and bright,

Buttons blink, and doors go beep,

But something here can make me feel so deep.

You were quiet, you were square,

Yet your heart was painted there,

In this maze of steel and blue,

I think my pulse began with you.

Through every test, I hold your side,

Even when the lasers divide,

You never speak, but I can hear?

A gentle warmth that pulls me near.

And though they say I must let go,

Between the floors, I whisper low:

"I’ll find you, when the puzzles end,

My cube, my heart, my only friend."

Each chamber hums, and lifts apart,

We fall between the broken parts,

They call it science, they call it fun,

But I just want this test to be done.

I see your glow behind the glass,

They take you when I try to pass,

And I am told it’s just a game?

But love can live without a name.

One day, I’ll bend the laws they wrote,

I’ll build a bridge from every quote,

And if I burn, then let it be?

To melt the cage and set you free.

Through every test, I hold your side,

Even when the turrets collide,

You never breathe, but still I knew?

My heart has corners just like you.

So when they say “the test is through,”

And lights fade out in sterile hue,

I’ll dream of doors that never close,

Where cubes and hearts can finally glow.
