Nothing was revealed

So it is the emotionally unavailable
game which you wish to play.
Congratulations are in order
for you have just found an expert
on that very subject
and we can start right away.
Yes I said right away.
You see I'm full of experience of my own
in fact I even lived with a woman
yet in essence she was all alone.
That's right, I was as unavailable
as they come.
So all my feelings
stayed hidden deep within
twas against my agenda
to let her in.
I knew not how to share.
I would never let her know
how much I cared.
So much easier
to feel no feelings at all.
Nothing to be revealed
and leaving no thoughts to recall.
And much easier to get along with
a woman such as you
cause the less we proceed to tell
the more we seem to relate so well.
You can rest assured nothing will be revealed
on the unavailable emotions scale.
On the other hand
if your desire is to touch my heart
if you are really yearning to give it a try
then let's both open our hearts together
and let our feelings learn to fly.

Very open and honest, stating clearly frustration and an inner turmoil.

This was great. I liked it a lot. A wonderful way of expressing yourself.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

The secrets of love (and everything) lie within.  If she doesn't wish to share the inner and discover your inner, she is the loser here James not you.  I know enough about you to know you need a female companion on EVERY level, not just the dating level.  I'm sorry you are in this sort of situation for I know it is so painful...  hugs*

James~ I'm sorry......this hurts me to read....all closed up and not feeling when that's what you want to do---feel. If she can't open up to you and stop playing these games then you don't need that.....is she trying to make you feel grateful that she allows you to be near her? Games are just crap in my opinion. You deserve better.   -SEA

YES give it a try.  Open your heart and let the love flow out and vise versa.  
Great words of expressions!!

Thanks for the wonderful response...Actually I came out of a long relationship in which I wouldn't share my feelings and I saw the error of my ways so the next long relationship I opened up completely to let the cards fall where they may...problem was she wouldn't share her feelings...so I am still willing to share my feelings yet many of the women I meet are not so willing...and I wonder why some are and some are not...I feel like a butterfly when I am with a woman that simply shares her thoughts with me...when I am with a woman that keeps to herself I feel like I am doing something wrong to deserve that treatment...I yearn for a close relationship where we are both ready, willing and able to share out innermost thoughts, feelings and emotions...James

it's the ultimate question James. . . how much do we reveal about ourselves?

the answer. . . you just have to know. . .

Yes James, I think we all want the ultimate relationship.  Thats where the *soul mate* part somes in...(yes I am an ole romantic and still believe in this).  Keep looking and dont stop opening your heart and soul up to a woman.  One day you will find Ms. Right.   I wish you all the luck in the world dear Friend!

James, don't feel that you are doing something wron when people wont open up,it could be that they still havnt gotten to the place were you are now....showing your true self.

take care

If you are honest with yourself, then it is easy to be honest with another.  Just my finding though.  Maybe that's why I'm single again!!  LOL  

Great write James!

I only found this site two days ago.  A friend "put me in touch".  James, as I read your poem, I thought about my life.  I live with a person who is unable or won't share his feelings with me.  He never let's me in.  Your poem touched me and gave me the courage to keep trying with him.  Thanks.  Keep up the good work.
