                I was touched by this because I read if from the perspective of my daughter who is deaf.  Although the absence of hearing in this piece might be metaphorical, it moved me.

                I like this one too. tho I had a little problem with line 13--"I read your masculine lips" which threw me off a bit both rhythmically and started wondering it I were reading a novel, and it is here that the poem became gender-griven--which you might have wanted to convey. But men thave these same feelings too.
Just a thought. But if you deleted "masculine" you might be writing for both of us.
