Hopelessly Confused

Truth, is I don't know if i'm honestly ready for this
	I want to let you in,
	Though what are your intentions?
	Am I just someone easy for you at the moment?
	Do you want something more?
	Just what is your intentions?
	This feels like I'm just conveniently there
	That you are looking for one thing
	I'm bad at reading the situation
	So, confused
	A part of me wants to trust you,
	That part is afraid I will only get hurt
	I feel like I'm getting mixed signals which makes this all worse
	It's easy to not put your heart out there,
	Or that is what I had thought,
	Could it be I was wrong?
	Could it be you like me for more than just something to do?
	Maybe I'm honestly just stupid
	Falling for anyone that gives me attention,
	Though honestly i don't think I'm falling for you
	More like trying to push you away,
	Though it's failing effortlessly 
	Gives up...

Reading your poem make me thankful I have been married to the same woman for coming up on 37 years, lol! Well done, you conveyed the anxiousness and uneasiness of dating.
