I wonder if my skeletons in the closet miss me. I used to keep them company all the time. I hope they're still playing nice.
They wouldn't make for the most comfortable of cuddles, but at least we had a lot in common. We could talk all night until the sun rose, and it wouldn't even matter as long as we had the door shut. We'd talk until I was deliriously hallucinating faces on their skulls. We'd talk until I'd melt into their rib cages. My pupils were as wide as eye sockets, and I could see myself in their skin. They'd smile at me, warmly, and make me feel at home.
I wasn't afraid of the dark, I was afraid of the light.
