Surrogacy

In a technological context, this extends beyond human pregnancy to describe any system, entity, or machine that acts as a substitute, vessel, or experiential proxy for another. This can range from a remote-controlled robot avatar (a "surrogate body") exploring a toxic environment, to an AI that serves as a legal or digital surrogate for a person in virtual meetings, to using engineered organisms as living factories to produce chemicals. It's the outsourcing of presence, risk, or biological function.
Surrogacy Example: In the film Surrogates, people live through pristine robotic Surrogate bodies while their real selves lie inert at home. A more near-term example: a scientist using a haptic-feedback-enabled drone as a surrogate to handle dangerous bio samples in a sealed lab from a continent away.

surrender

and what if it is meant to be this way
a glance we may never share
should I love you less because of that
should I stop being who I am

I already love you every time I breathe
and I like breathing
I can no longer breathe
without thinking of who I breathe for

wanting more feels natural
but even if everything stays the same
with fate, obsession and choice
I am still happy with our small highs

I choose not to surrender
to storms and misfortune
to seas of impossibility
I want you alive within me and on the horizon
to you I choose to surrender completely
