"Emergency Holographic Lover"

Together alone    
We tripped the light fantastic    
Dancing between atoms    
Dancing through photons    
Slow moving to the hollow beats    
Of my holographic heart.    
   
Her eyes meet mine    
She stare's right through me    
I place her hand in mine    
It passes straight through
now you see.    
Lost in echoes of silent pleas    
Through lands of glass    
Sparkling with golden glee.    
I am merely a replacement    
for a string of shattered dreams
And broken promises
A tool to prevent you
From feeling alone.    
   
She took my love    
When she left me for another    
Here i remain    
Your emergency holographic lover.    
Turn me on    
Turn me off    
Whatever takes your fancy    
Like one of your favorite sex toys    
Used whenever you become randy.  
Though i am not alive  
I cling to life  
Like a newborn baby  
Clings to its mother.  
If you Love me,  
Only then  
Will i be made flesh  
And the rest will follow.  
   
I guess i would feel used    
if i was real?    
Just because i am    
Composed of photons and light    
doesn't mean    
i don't think or feel.    
Activate,    
Deactivate    
Leave me for dead    
As you grab a new lover    
To fill the other    
Side of your  
Well worn bed.
