Confused about Love Poem

Poem Yearning For Connection

I met this man who has been really hurt by other women before. It is hard for him to trust again. To me, his feelings are hot and then cold. I really like him and would like to begin a relationship with him, but I am really not sure if it is the right thing to do for me.

My Words Are In My Thoughts And Heart

Published by Family Friend Poems June 2010 with permission of the Author.

I know it is hard to trust another when you have been hurt.
You're protecting your heart, keeping it close to you,
So close you won't let anyone in.

You say you want to find love again
But want to take it slow.
One minute you want to spend time with me
Then others you don't.

You share no feelings or thoughts
So that I can understand.
It feels like you're using me, so you're not so alone.

I really like you and it would be sad to let you go.
I really want to know you as a person,
Even if it is slow.

When you're gone, I miss you lots.
Even when you're here I still miss you.
Maybe this is not what you want.
I would like to think that you would tell me,
So that I don't feel so alone.

If you could just talk to me and let me know.
