The Language of Flowers

Flowers
can be used
for anything

Love
Breakups
Marriages
Death

A laugh alone
a smile with friends

Anything.

But if I had
a choice

I would prefer
you giving me
flowers while

I'm alive
and able to
enjoy their beauty

I want to be able 
to see them,
to smile

I would rather
I have joy alive

Than for you
to lay roses
on my grave
