I have not gone away... <br />Because my closets are bare! <br />The only thing that this change brings, <br />Is a freshness to stale air! <br />I had to clear away the dust, <br />And collected thoughts that sat! <br />I needed to show you more of me... <br />And the crampness did not allow that! <br />I have to add a growth that comes. <br />With a purpose that brightens like the Sun. <br />I'm saying this now so we both understand... <br />You're not getting rid of me, <br />I don't see how you can! <br />Unless 'you're' making untold plans? <br />Are you?<br /><br />Lawrence S.
