Creature

Close down all the doors
bring down all the bridges
put up all the walls
cut down all the ties
make every effort for me to forget it

I’ll keep rummaging my soul
to look for bits and pieces of you
No matter how much it hurts
No matter how much the
pain pours

With this sunken eyes in my sockets
hiding years of pain and regret
and with pallid face
under the old dark moon
I’ll keep foraging the
memories of you

Picking at the scab of
my marred and broken soul
I’ll keep knocking
on your door

See, you just cannot
leave me like this
You just cannot
make me forget it
Darling!,
as you already know
I’m a creature of habit.
