Vulnerability Scares Him

He said he didn’t want an emotional attachment

Now he is wondering

How did he allow this to happen?

He dips in And then dips out

Terrified of his feelings

Stuck in much doubt

Scratching his head

Really wanting to shout

He is like a dope feen

He eventually comes back for his fix

Wondering why it is me he misses

Trapped in a past of such emotional hurt

Afraid I will be yet another woman

To bury him in dirt

He tried to stay away

But the force was so strong

But I feel I have dealt with this

Way too long

Seeing him attempt to run

From what he feels and carries within

What he is really doing Is chasing the wind

I can not help him

With his emotional pain

Clearly he is not ready

For me to carry his name

So I will pray

That God heals his heart

And mends each broken vein

I love him that much

To release him

And not be ashamed

Even if another woman

One day carries his name

My true love for him
