An abandoned old gate

An old gate in the fields of Watford
Closed, not used for a long time
Retired, not needed, lonely
People have forgotten… 


Have you walked here? This is your field.
The chain is new, and gives a forbidden way
Will be closed forever. I have the key.
I won’t give it to you. I threw it away...
…find it in your world…
… and you will get a new way…
