Distance

Growing trees and blossoms

Across your disheartened despair.

Swapping dust for shine.

Vines and roses cover an apocalyptic grown valley.

 

Tranquility and welcoming

Hidden with distressing mystery.

Bringing life,

With this love we’ll touch.

Hearts brighter than lights.

 

Wandering along

Oh sweet flower child,

Where have you gone?

Through the deadness of the night?

Must have been stricken by the fight,

In a dream world that will never truly belong.

Quite a fantasy for a girl in love with her getaway dream.

 

Tired from the fight.

Heart full of delight.

Doesn’t belong in this town at all.

So much to offer with so little cared.

Some people can’t belong-

Living in a dream is sometimes the best way to go along.

Hearts averring  a city that never sleeps.

I just wonder, where does this girl lives, that she desires a dream, an alternate reality over her reality?
It seems she has some kind of pain and she "travels" to that dream to get rid of all that pain.
Nice poem, it was difficult to me to interpret (since I'm not an expert), but this is what my silly head got :D

the girl lives confined, wrapped already around whatever is going on in her life in the country. She wants to explore and everything seems old to her.. "Vines and roses cover an apocalyptic grown valley." So, she travels in her mind. "Oh sweet flower child,
Where have you gone?
Through the deadness of the night?
Must have been stricken by the fight,
In a dream world that will never truly belong.
Quite a fantasy for a girl in love with her getaway dream." She dreams about getting away but can't really. She feels like she has more to offer but no way to get there because no one else really understands her- "So much to offer with so little cared" .
