Reflections seven

My heart
is uncertain
my feelings are
still the same
I ignore for years
I feel the same as I did
in the yesteryears -
seeing you
as I once did
your voice of
nonjudgemental
your care
for others -
a trait
so many don't have
yet there is something odd
about you
as if I was
in the Beauty and The Beast -
I sense
your desire
your need for someone
in your life -
How close
is too close
I don't want
to get hurt again -
I protect me
not from you
but from me -
Confused at
what to expect, if anything -
I keep my
distance with my heart,
from you
not me -
Your voice is soft
I feel safe knowing
your words are of care -
You fustrate me
as you hold back
why are you
afraid to be loved
togive love?
I don't know
what to do...
I want to be one
someone to you
yet you hold back
keeping your heart
prisonier
costing you
so much -
I wish you
could trust
seek out
from ones
who are on your side -
Take a leap of faith
you will be safe
take a chance
to give in
let someone accept
your heart
with no reservations -
let me into
your world
allow me to be the one
to share with you
what you have
to be as
who you are.
