Are You?

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