In Search of Closure
Seeking closure
A happy ending
To the things I've done
For the things I've said
It's time to put to bed
The guilt throbbing in my head
Finding it hard to sleep at night
Maybe it's the mattress
Maybe it's my conscious
Refusing me peace of mind
Urging me to be kind
To push rewind
To examine the life I've lived
Computing emotions memories evoke
Regretting who I've become & what I've done
My tongue is a viper full of poison
My deeds are shameful & destructive
Lives in ruins lie in my wake
Savaging for closure
Like a man lost in a desert, in need of water.
