The skeletons in my closet

Are never lonely

I keep them company

Snug between 

Hanging cardigans

And folded up jeans


And my friends

Try to tell me

That closets

Are for clothes


But

I have 

to be here

With my skeletons


And the light that seeps

Through the cracks

Between the doors

Is like honey

Golden

And sweet


And maybe

If I could

Push open the doors

I would 

Soak it in

And be golden too
