You held a gun to your head you told me our love is something you would die over. You told me that life wasn't worth living if you weren't with me. So, I stayed I didn't walk out the door I stayed the next time when we got into a fight you held a knife to your wrist you told me that if I didn't forgive you then that was it. So, I did I forgave you so quickly when I don't answer you within 10 minutes you threaten to kill yourself to pop pills. It's exhausting everyday I wake up horrified if I missed a text I can't sleep throughout the night because what if I miss a text. What if I'm the reason you're not here anymore I know this isn't love but you have me trapped in this relationship I can't leave because if I do you will leave. How do I leave this relationship without hurting you without making you hurt yourself.
