Leaving

I apologise
A clenched heart only wants pain for another
Once unclenched, all the blood rushes into guilt
The stench of another loneliness has sent
My nose into a frenzy
Only the scent of you can bring back calm
My lips swim too fast trying to be right
Trying to take the crown for all arguments
Words mean everything and nothing
But do not ask me to leave.
