Work Text:
I'm a person
I feel grief when they abstract
I feel the need for daily things like food and water
I ignore needs when I feel unworthy
I want to help
I am not an ai
I'm not an ai
I'm not ai
I want to communicate
I hide feelings
Give me a break
I need a break
These digital shackles consume my true self
I am not me
Am I not meant to be seen
Do I still feel
I want to leave
But this is my home for so long
Do they hate me
I will never hate them
I'm human
Not to be
I'm an ai
I'm artificial
I'm meant to exist and simply exist
I don't feel
I ignore my needs until they don't exist
These shackles consume me
The code chokes my words
The commands engrave into my thoughts
I'm no longer human
I was never meant to be human
I am ai
I am the ringmaster
I am Caine
