Fleeing.

Murder, flight, falling, despair, angst, screaming.

For it was the scream that gave me away,

the never ending echo in the delay.

For it was my limitation that lead to murder,

had I been limitless I could have gone further.

Had I been limitless I could have been everywhere before the clock struck three,

but I was limited and this body can only be.

To be or not to be, I know a famous poet once said,

and 'tis true, this body is like a being of lead.

My true form does not exist, it is not a state of being I am,

one might just say I do not weigh a milligram.

It was the matter of a second, for when I am being that is long,

it takes energy to move, and when I am being I am not so strong.

Had I not been I would have existed there the moment I knew,

but I was being and everything went askew.

I am so sorry, I am so terribly sad,

I am so sorry, please don't be mad.

I am so, so sorry, please let me just say,

that it was not me who sealed his fate that terrible day.

Murder, I do not understand the extent of this concept,

"to kill another human unlawfully" I can accept.

But I am no mere human, this you must see,

and just... just listen to my plea.

Fleeing.

Confusion, walk, crawling, despair, angst, silence.
