咲いた彼岸花 (Blooming Red Spider Lilies)



In Japan, the Red Spider Lily symbolizes a separation between two people, when it is unlikely that the two people will ever cross paths again. Many of these flowers grow near gravestones in Japan, and 'red spider lilies growing between our paths' is a common metaphor between bitter lovers that can never get back together. I had a bad breakup a few months ago, so I decided to draw myself some spider lilies.



But remember. Time heals. Even Red Spider Lilies don't bloom forever.
