I appreciate it ~ not as a poem, but as your expression about the fear of letting your guard down to love someone. I'm reminded of some advice I was given once by a selfish, opportunistic wretch: "be sure to marry someone who loves you more than you love her (essentially, so that you can use your dominant, indifferent position to abuse the f*ck out of her). Of course, though quite logical, that advice is absolute bullshit. I may be misunderstanding your meaning here, but your words regardless struck a cord with me.
