O YOU WHOM I OFTEN AND SILENTLY COME by WALT WHITMAN

Poet Analysis

First Line: O YOU WHOM I OFTEN AND SILENTLY COME WHEN YOU ARE THAT I MAY BE WITH YOU
Last Line: IS PLAYING WITHIN ME.
Subject(s): LOVE;
O you whom I often and silently come where you are that I
may be with you,
As I walk by your side or sit near, or remain in the same
room with you,
Little you know the subtle electric fire that for your sake
is playing within me.
