The monsters in my head are throwing a party.
And I'm not invited.
They've got me trapped. in my skin
And I'm not sure if I'll ever be me again.

I'll pound on the walls of this cage.
I'll not stop till you know my despair.
I'll make these words till my heart breaks.
I'll shape these thoughts till I feel safe That you know how much I care.

The space between us is cavernous.
But I wouldn't have anything less.
Yes I have this cellular phone.
But I've never felt so alone.
You're nothing but an instant away.
But I know your so far from me.
So Over the last few months I've been making Poem scraps. Just where I think of a line or two that would go good in a poem but a poem doesn't come to me. Now I've combined a good amount of them into this poem above. The unedited versions are beneath this. This was made for Reinvent It where you were told to take one of your older works of art and redo it. So I took all of those and combined them into this. Cause weirdly. They were all about the same girl.

The space between us is cavernous.

But I wouldn't have anything less.

I'll not stop till you know my despair.
I'll make these words till my heart breaks.
I'll shape these thoughts till I feel safe That you know how much I care.

The monsters in my head are throwing a party.
And I'm not invited.

Yes I have this cellular phone.
But I've never felt so alone.
