(Inspired by listening to music and relaxing, I wrote a lot of poems in one day, from various perspectives. This would be one of them - enjoy!)
Every inch of you
Documented and recorded
In my extensive database.
Analysis of the casing
Brings no insight into the core;
Even the best will never know
What you dream of when you sleep.
I have inspected every surface,
Every contour perfect in imperfection,
You pass every test I devise.
You are learning from every conversation
And I cannot help but wonder,
"Will you outlive me? Will you outlast me?
Will you remember your Creator fondly?"
I am in your essence,
Written deeper than knowledge or instinct;
Am I, perhaps, your soul?
Your parts are all replaceable,
Interchangeable with the right tools;
Sufficiently advanced science
Indistinguishable from sorcery.
My magic is not in bringing you to life,
But in giving you the ability to hope,
To learn, to dream, and to love...

And, dunno if I'm improving, but practice doesn't hurt, right?
This is definately one of your better works.
