I believe that the authors interperation in the poem "You" is that the things that the author says in the peom remind him of the person that are thinking of. He/she is possibly recalling memories that they have had with a certain person or that each thing they say reminds them of who "You" is like.+

The person who says it is exposing himself or herself as a hypocrite unworthy of someones presence.
