Words breathed
in softest whispers
turning acid in your ears.
Thought she
exhaled love’s zephyr breeze,
but only tasted
a bitter gust
of rejection’s toxic waste.

but the first word in the second stanza: 'thought' should it be though?
to me that would make more sense.
anyways i really enjoyed your poem.
