Poetry: I Want You to Sin

I told you a truth
You didn't wish to hear.
It was hard to say,
Swallowing my pride.

But

Your reaction was sour
Your rage was fierce.
Punishments to be enforced
Caused by my words.

So

In my sorrow
And in my grief
I sought comfort,
Hoping for relief.

Yet

When I reached others
To let them hear my words
The advice I received was,
"You shouldn't have said a word."

There is no honor here.
