"Can't Not"

I still remember what you said

that you couldn't let people get too close

let them get inside

your mind

and I didn't want to any more

because

it hurts so much

too much

to care

but if I meet new people

now

I end up caring

anyway

and then one day

maybe

they can hurt me

really hurt me

is that what they mean

by phrases like

you leave yourself open

I suppose so

but I tried

to slam my heart and mind

shut

and failed

because I still care

and I still

can't not
