Rosemary

Rosemary — herb of remembrance — often touches sadness and indifference souring homes that look outwardly prosperous, with loss for the married. The dream may ask where a quiet melancholy is hollowing out a life that appears, from outside, to have everything, and whether unspoken indifference is what's draining the warmth.
