[She offers the critique because she thinks it will make it easier for him to accept her praise as genuine, too. Which she thinks about explaining, but express what I felt gets her eyes welling all over again. Even if overthinking might have gotten in the way of showing his personality, it does show clear effort. He worked really, really hard on this. Because...this is what he really thinks of her. And he wanted her to know that.

Another sniffle. She has to remind herself not to crumple the poem as she holds it closer.]
Thank you, Alex. I love it.
