Time and time again,
the volume of your voice
overtakes my doubts,
almost breaking the chain
as you try to make me believe
that you will stay.
But I fear I have too much baggage
and no heart,
as it has already been taken
and will forever belong to him.
He planted a contagious poison
inside my blood,
leaving you in danger by my side,
and as much as I start to believe you,
I love you too much to take the risk
of having your blood on my hands.
