Reciting

You take my silence 
as coldness, as indifference even—
but if you listen very closely 
I am reciting to my universes 
the sheer love I have for you 
in every line and every word.

The subtlety is a beautiful thing for anyone who notices! I really like how you are praising yourself in such a humble manner. It's all rather astounding to me to see something like this. Such talent you have. But I always have thought that!
