The Symbol Piece

Why would one, beneath the earth
Where shadows watch and hide,
Near dripping hearts affection lie,
Let flowers grow beside?

And why would one, in landscape shy,
In shallow and forgotten peace,
Allow this daisy garden grow
Where wallowed loves increase?

And why would one remember days,
And not regret but to remind--
He left his folded word two times
To leave his love behind?
