Scared to step out and

Scared to step out and face it all right now
I know the truth but refuse to say it
Why am I in this place I don't know how
The pieces of the puzzle still fit
Your presence makes me feel completely whole
Yet I won't let you be permanent
Without you my heart nurtures no soul
Living and dying aren't so distant
But what's the real reason behind this deceit?
Lying to myself I know its not true
This monster inside I wish to defeat
I hate him he is keeping me from you
I wish I could pretend we never met
But your kiss makes it impossible to forget
