Announcing your feelings creates expectations and pressure. Let's be honest, we don't confess our love for someone because we're expecting them to say 'Oh, ok. I didn't know that'. We want them to reciprocate and if they don't or do but aren't ready to act it makes things awkward for everyone.
Your relationship ended for a reason. It could be that the circumstances have changed so that you are no longer a suitable match, or that you both needed to repair things on your own. Give yourselves a chance to do that before delving into round two.
Leave it as friends for now. The relationship, such as it is, is a bit fragile for anything more. Let him get to know you again...for the first time (this was a tv ad slogan years back, but it seems apt here).
