What's your take on this poem? Its really odd?

Question

You

You who I address

You who I want to befriend and nurture

You who I address

You who veil your eyes from my light, who cover your ears against

my words. You who protect your body from my attacks

You look at me Paul

No Look at me. I'm trying to make myself more beautiful

I can see in a mirror

When i look in the mirror, I see you from behind

You. You

Include me in, Paul Look at me

You

Why won't you look at me?

Something's trying to say itself

I heard what's being said

No. Something's trying to say itself

You.

You

You

You

Now. Keep talking

You

I can see you're not really talking to me. I'm doing a good job of

listening

Something's getting said

yes it is a beautiful and lovely woven poem with a fine and unique tinge of silvery unseizable love. The poet though by name is a man has identified himself in being a young lady and is asking her beloved , why will you not look at me ? Why aren't you talking with me paul ? We are one even in our image in a mirror .

In spite of this weird silence, something is conveyed even in silence !

The poem is good and truly stands as a necklace of purest pearl . May be, if we bring in more melody and music, a harmonious whole might result. Removing a few extra yous though true to life, may help in this endeavour . After all beauty - art is something more than what is just seen in a mirror !
