I thought it was only me.
But it's a real concept, you see.
I can almost recognize.
People without my eyes.
But for that you'll have to be.
Standing really close to me.
Because like an animal.
I can smell if we're compatible.
There's something about pheromones.
That resonates with the hormones.
Either I like your smell.
Or I don't want to know you well.
Pheromones can be intoxicating.
Or even at times, suffocating.
But they're always there.
Though you may not be aware
Every one has their own brand.
Just feel your pulse points or hand.
Irrespective of the perfume you wear.
That underlying scent is always there.
We all have a distinct smell.
in which we continuously dwell.
When you decrease your dependency.
Almost to the point of redundancy.
Of the senses you're most used to.
The other ones awaken and make a debut.
So try to maximize.
Each sense and their prize.
Increasing observation.
A holistic perception.
By seeing through your ears.
Tasting through your nose.
Heightening awareness.
Developing tangible matureness.
