Closets hold a lot.
Yours holds skeletons just like a cliche.
Mine happens to hold a whole solar system.
I was afraid of it. As if it were the monster we read about as children
but soon I realized that monster was configured inside of me.
So I decided to reach inside and pull planets out and stuff them underneath
my bed just so id have 
something to say goodnight to 
even though they never said it back.

Each night I reached through the cobwebs as if they were lasers about to burn my skin off
for trying to steal something so precious even though I controlled them.
The monster we talked about 
wanted to hold those planets again
"I need you guys" I thought.
juggling them in my hands was quite the trick. 
I never had sturdy hands and constantly poked
myself with needles trying to stitch
articles of your clothing together 
to make a full nightgown.
Have your ever looked in a mirror and felt like spiders were crawling on your back? 
Maybe it's just the solar system of 
humans stuffed in your closet
begging to be let out and
held in your arms instead.
Maybe I'm the skeletons in your closet 
and the stars In mine are your blood cells.
