My Try:
Do you know what taking offense means?
Taking offense is honesty.
It is childish and that’s why it is pure,
truthful.
To take offense is “I love you”,
refusing to give up.
To take offense describes [tells about] me:
I got angry but I am still here, I am not going, I cannot go.
To take offense is to act coyly, to be close, “you are valuable to me”.
To take offense means to say that you love - you know - to say “please understand”.
To take offense is hope, leaving doubts, being sure.
So, I will say this [what I mean is ]:
I am offended by you. [I took offence by you]
