Why me?
How and why so me?
Why is this my destiny,
What is this meant to mean to me?
So why me,
Why is this my set destiny?
Why do I get to think and dream for the future,
If time is stuck in a consistent nature?
Time and you cannot race,
Time is set at its own pace.
Past is set where it was meant to be,
So tell me why,
Why is it me?
Why is it me who thinks freely,
But there is no freedom in thinking freely.
No freedom in this world,
You promised me
That one day, somehow, I will be set free.
But set free where exactly?
Time does not handle freedom perfectly.
Stuck in a clock, round we go in its cycle,
A clock has a destiny,
The hour hand always comes and goes, 2 to 3.
So why exactly,
Why work hard if time's already set expectedly?
What does it mean to be able to change your future,
Are you changing the future, or was it always meant to be?
You said I would be set free,
But where is the freedom in being in a cycle?

Miss Marple is a famous sleuth
She investigates and gets the truth
Murder intriguing has been committed
Just as well she's quite quick-witted.
Whom does this crime benefit most?
We can rule out our charming host
Victim was found dead in his room
Around his body flowers strewn.
Completely by accident Marple saw
Delivery of flowers at kitchen door
Where busy maid spends her day
All mundane tasks are sent her way.
She might be poor, but that blackguard
Sent flowers with invite scrawled on card!
Never expecting she would not comply
The fillet knife aided his dying sigh.
Flowers she threw in such distress
Then walked away from mortal mess
Bravely she sought Marple's advice
Who said 'she was skating on rather thin ice'.
Enigma surrounds this long closed case
The victim, no gentleman was a disgrace
Home in her cottage, thinking things through
Marple wondered what Poirot would do?

Amidst the cacophony of raging emotions
In a nexus of conflicting passions
Lies a beguiled soul
He is embedded in a labyrinth of racing thoughts
And interlocking fears
He investigates his surroundings
While a sinking sensation grips him
Immobile in feeling
He plots his course
Frozen in indecision
Trying out different personas
He reaches invisibility
As he grasps to others for direction
Becoming as lost as ever
When will the conflict end?
When will stability be attained?
He thrashes around in the cage of his existence
Finding a spot to land on
Arriving nowhere
He cradles himself in a bubble
Peering out from the chains he’s strapped in
Hoping for a beam of sunshine to pierce through
One day the solution will come
And things will regain their meaning
Until then, he’ll remain with the entanglement that is now referred to as existence…
