A lingering scent Never permanent Is meaningless. A mere shadow of the memories It may bring about Burying your face into a scent Gives no presence nor relief Increases longing and nothing else The smell of a love The smell of a hate It all fades And it is nothing but a scent Without mass Without meaning.
