As you leave

Sweeping all the dust and waste.

Before; before you go.

Leave it clean and spotless.

Before;before you go.

What was it before it was new?

You clean all away,

so you cannot answer.

Close the door and lock it shut.

Just as; just as you leave.

Pocket the ice cold key.

Just as;just as you leave.

What did you keep behind the door?

You don't reply.

Because you've no need to any more.

-- heartbreaking but absolutely beautiful poetry... the repetition works really well... and "ice cold key" is a brilliant expression... it's unforgettable...
