Brown
a color
the stench of my skin
My blood it
reeks of red

Sniff
my name
a foreign sound
A common tongue
that stinks the same

Get a whiff
of my god
a displeasing odor
The tang of a heartbeat
in you, in me

Can you smell my pain?

You and I
two flowers
two scents
in the same world

I am sorry it bothers you so much.
