THE LURE OF AN INSINCERE WHISPER**

Folder: 
JOURNAL #35

truly it was

'The Lure Of

An Insincere Whisper'

I made a joke

and from the seed of humor

a painful brier grew

broad between us

albeit a tad off color

such remark was

but from such wrath

I could not disentangle

myself easily

defeated with my own

harmless mirth

who would have thought

in a peak of self deprecating

humor

or so I thought

a tender moment was lost

never to be shared again.............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

written from a misunderstanding had by the me and the man who has captured my enchantment and made it his own. A joke that backfired on me you might say and I felt so horribly bad over it.
