The wardrobe creaks of tomorrow.

What he brought,
she carried as luggage
he could no longer bear to their room where
they shared
all cases opened,
while the past
hung in the wardrobe,
new moments chosen
are the clothes they wear.

this is really a well-done metaphor...
everything bared so that they can be unpacked of past burden and travel together now to new places in new clothes.
