one of the ways in which you amaze me even though it has been so long that one might think that I would have gotten used to everything by now
what amazes me
is that
you know
when I am not
being true
to myself
even though
it is not
evident
to me
and even better
that you wait
for me
to figure it out
for myself
and even better
that you simply
wait
for me
