His Scent.

How do I disintegrate,
His scent that burns my nose,
Drills my skull with vengeance,
So enchanting,
That's only meant to serve.

How do I demolish,
His scent crafted to my lungs,
That with every breath of fresh air,
I still feel him as I exhale,
Reminding me of a broken us.

How do I erase,
The musk of his scent,
Latched to my heart,
Emblazoned in my mind,
Like a broken record on replay.

How do I move on,
When I cannot seem to destroy,
That scent burned to my chest,
Like a tattoo curved into me,
Him as the skilled artist,
Marring every part of me.

Please do tell,
How do I obliterate,
His scent embedded in me?
