More Of An Experiment Than Anything Else

Is this a joke?, he said
Oh, I didn't mean it to be;
chill for a minute and listen.
She'd explain if he was quiet.
He'd be open to hearing her out.
Spoken in hushed tones,
It was for you, a gift -
this gift was supposed to be special.
He froze. He gained perspective,
Accept this apology.
