​it’s not real (poem/interlude)

It's not real,
I refuse to conceal,
The beast will come for my throat,
I don't want to know him,

And it is scary,
Why do I even try to fight,
When I know I will be the death of myself,
I can't compare to the likes of you,

You are so much greater and better then I am,
I cower in fear when you walk into the room,
But I know you so well,
And I know your every trick and move,

And you the same,
As I walk on the lines of a thin tightrope,
I hate you, however, I still love you,
You can never tell with us,

I always hide because of my timid nature,
But I have always dreamt of a life with you,
Run, run away every single time,
You always have your mind on someone else and I think about it,

All the time, because in reality,
We share one body, one roof,
And it isn't a metaphor for anything,
Because we are two separate people,

Sharing a mind,

Sharing a body.
