meeting you after years

a part of me, or let's say, a substantial part
of me refuses to feel excited, happy, moved
to tears and blessed, at having met you.
why? do i not feel these things?
yes indeed i do, but i am afraid;
scared that you will vanish
like it once happened
even without us knowing.
so i steel my mind to feel just
the same. to refuse to let the heart 
soar in boundless joy.
after all, the price of unrestrained joy
is inevitable pain!
