Pretty young lady amongst gardens of flowers,
Lives a lovely tune on her red lips;
Made up songs of familiar languages, Yet the words so hidden,
Feels like her last wish to gatekeep.
She has faith in her work, even if nobody else does,
"Life is great when it's sacrificed for love."
She says,as she gently tears off her flowers.
"I'll smile in someone's tears forever."

Baskets of flowers she gathers, offerings of smiles she possesses,
She appreciates the weather for the looks of it,
Feels life in love for the meaning of it.
She carries the basket home.
Greets her presence with a kiss,
As she burns the flowers in her fireplace,
Hoping tomorrow will be a good day.

"Sacrifice of beauty hurts,"
"doesn't it ?"

This is beautiful.... it’s similar to how I like to end my poems..... I love the vivid imagery you have captured and the emotions you have portrayed .... I would like to know what you wanted to express through this poem as I do not have a deep understanding of symbolism..... overall very beautiful ✨

It's about how exterior surface beauty becomes ignorant when the human mind is troubled, the girl, in the poem represents our inner conscience, in that hour when it gives up, the flowers being our beauty, love, comfort. The conscience or the girl represents early comfort converting to poison, as she/it tears off the flowers and burns them, our conscience asks us for the last time, if the ruined exterior beauty hurts you in the situation. Now it's your time to choose if it does, or if you don't have any questions regarding it. @golden pond
