You came with me on the last dayand wiped down window sills
and skirting boards with a fresh smelling
all purpose cleaner, and I filled the odd hole
in the wall and cleaned the toilets
and swept the workshop floor ready
to hand back to the landlord.
And before we left, we stood in the empty
space and you held me like you do,
and I knew that the next step
would be even better than the last.
