I love how you wrote this. You have Brilliant rhyming skills and a beautiful selection of words. The meaning of this poem really has a deep meaning that is sure to stay with the reader.
"The monster pulls me down too deep"
I take that as a metaphor for the negativity from people around you and the negativity, and cruelty that you appoint to yourself.
"Its claws grip hard around my wrist"
I take that this line represents self harm.
"It's stolen my voice and cracked my lungs"
I take this line to mean that you've become afraid to speak up and talk to people, making you anti-social, afraid of what other people will think of you and judge you.
"But if I try to pull away
Then I will surely break."
I believe that this line means that that the alternative is much worse than the current state and place you are in currently.
Overall very well written, please do write more.
