Today is another day of testing,
I walk through the cold, white rooms,
As I stop, calmly resting,
A hatch opens, and drops you in my life.

Your cold, hard exterior, a shell,
Your metal covers your soft heart,
You came to rescue me from hell,
And now we walk together.

I jump atop you, and you make me taller,
We run along the long white room,
And even as the corridor gets smaller,
I know you’ll save us from all problems.

You act as shield, weight and friend,
As a stool, you have no better,
And then she speaks, and I fear the end,
You hold the button, I press the switch.

The hatch opens, to a flaming grave,
She tells me all this must be done,
Suddenly, you speak to me, say I must be brave,
I worry for my sanity, as you start to smile.

I wonder how a cube could grin,
But then the warm air reminds me,
I want to keep you, greed is my sin,
She speaks again, an angry tone.

I lift you up, above your fiery demise,
Once again, you speak to me,
You tell me that there will be a surprise,
Once I finish walking through the rooms.

You, the one I loved, and eventually dropped down a tube,
You, my one and only friend, the Aperture Science Companion Cube.
