Can someone tell me how
Life came to be?
I don’t want a religious tale
That one with Adam and Eve

I could use a few answers
I’m just curious you see
Am I in charge of my fate
Or a victim of destiny?

What’s below the surface?
Far below the tide
What’s out in space?
Where not a soul can hide

And what is the soul?
A figment of our creation?
Or is it the energy of our life
Left in permanent migration?

This is what I think of
When you see me staring off
I’m searching for some answers
So don’t roll your eyes and scoff
