Strung

You play your game
from the other side of the wire
pushing every button, 
tying every heart-string into knots. 

Like a scheme you've crafted so carefully
you lure me back into the snares
knowing I'm not strong enough to deny you, 
or smart enough to let  you go. 

You leave me shamed, 
to nurse a heart that has betrayed me
once again. You show no remorse
as you look at me with eyes that seem so safe. 

We both know this won't be the last time. . .
