“ Twisted hearts”

It’s thirty minutes away.
The clock will mark midnights hour.
I lay here sleepless once again.
mind spinning, stomach
sour.
You are in the other room,
As you always are.
Strange, just a few feet,
Can be such a distance
I’ve tried to reach you,
Show you what love means now ,worn down from your resistance.
My energy depleted, we are over now.
At least, that’s how it seems.
I’ll never understand.the inner workings of your twisted heart.
The only time you desire
me, is once I’ve chosen to depart.
Then, once again you reel me back, like a fish hooked on a line.
I find salvation within your arms,
Until your love. And heart retreat,
I’ll revel in this precious time.
