I was lost331Please respect copyright.PENANAsSo69zSCFY
331Please respect copyright.PENANAWDFqpjByQQ
Nowhere, and yet there was no where to be lost in. A shadow of my former self, no longer a king, no longer a man. An empty shell, stumbling through a colorless world.331Please respect copyright.PENANAlbfvDkJ4pN

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.331Please respect copyright.PENANAB7yYJPt2IX
Another Rose331Please respect copyright.PENANA4iqwnrNoeY
331Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZBSnhzIVf
A Rose reminiscent of You in every way. Her stem, her thorns, her scent, her petals... it was as if You had returned, reborn in a new form.331Please respect copyright.PENANAIUqcW2nmT8
331Please respect copyright.PENANAZIJRLobl0k
She wasn’t a peach-colored Juliet like You, but an Alabaster with pure white petals, like freshly fallen snow. Her color stood in stark contrast to my deep darkness and despair. I knew she would bring color to my life once more.331Please respect copyright.PENANAiWHussMjSU
331Please respect copyright.PENANAckOZJoTAsn
This time, I didn’t act recklessly. I didn’t grab her without thought as I had with You. She didn’t prick me, didn’t draw my blood. And when I held her close, I felt something I thought I had lost forever... happiness. 331Please respect copyright.PENANAKy8hgRcpEL

It was as if You were by my side again.331Please respect copyright.PENANAUWCVmHgcTt
331Please respect copyright.PENANAQZAa9qXPJV
I took her home with me and tended to her with love and care. Every morning, I would wake to her delicate beauty, her presence filling the empty spaces in my heart with warmth and light.331Please respect copyright.PENANAI5VRulw4KY

But as the days turned into weeks, I began to despise her white petals. Their purity, once so beautiful, became a flaw. They lacked the peach hue that had once captivated my soul. It was the only thing that made her different from You, the only thing that made her...331Please respect copyright.PENANAfLLSNEAfjg
331Please respect copyright.PENANA3WA5bXOZed
Not You.331Please respect copyright.PENANAl10DEuihGk
331Please respect copyright.PENANAPwzKnNfnTf
I tried to love her as she was. I truly did. But the whiteness became a constant reminder that she wasn’t You. And so, in my desperation, I stole a trick from Your book, my dearest...331Please respect copyright.PENANAUhR67wKqBW
331Please respect copyright.PENANAXrcLqvDqeU
I bought peach-colored paint.331Please respect copyright.PENANAzyDcujKUQh
331Please respect copyright.PENANAoSSJ4Psdme
I knew ordinary paint would dry and wilt her, just as You had withered from my blood. So I chose a non-drying paint, and it worked. Her pristine white petals absorbed the delicate shade of peach, and she was finally, truly You.331Please respect copyright.PENANAevFyYkpyH9
331Please respect copyright.PENANA9WHBmRAIK2
But as the days passed, I realized my grave mistake. The paint that gave her Your color also suffocated her. It coated every petal, blocking her pores and smothering her life.331Please respect copyright.PENANAPLuUGrKRZy
331Please respect copyright.PENANAGjc9yNMiWx
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.331Please respect copyright.PENANAlJabB4QF4v
331Please respect copyright.PENANAxV7nEoTEfs
I had killed another Rose331Please respect copyright.PENANAAVYbjtRwJ1
331Please respect copyright.PENANAixDC8ALUHB
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.331Please respect copyright.PENANACNrh0nSEmw
331Please respect copyright.PENANACiI2R3g3EQ
I suffocated her with Your memory.331Please respect copyright.PENANAlO3RzBgEul
331Please respect copyright.PENANAjaAeDRCGUk
I loved her... to death.
