I was lost274Please respect copyright.PENANAQAxKTmTA8q
274Please respect copyright.PENANAFKdF5Jrjxp
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANAAnRSGJKkvJ

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.274Please respect copyright.PENANAZLBhkjAAFx
Another Rose274Please respect copyright.PENANANQ4wHfgh7K
274Please respect copyright.PENANAvNtroQ7t8D
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANALkzffdqbgq
274Please respect copyright.PENANALllmdVCOYC
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANA4FuZRTo5kX
274Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2qmmQNO5p
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. 274Please respect copyright.PENANAHKD84Pea85

It was as if You were by my side again.274Please respect copyright.PENANAjpltVeYxUj
274Please respect copyright.PENANAzNq4PtUpDr
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANAsiuqYYmcHM

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...274Please respect copyright.PENANAZLAF09P8yb
274Please respect copyright.PENANAdZko3V593e
Not You.274Please respect copyright.PENANAZTPejtP1v5
274Please respect copyright.PENANAA6q5XWBVCz
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...274Please respect copyright.PENANAUU4GAovIJU

I bought peach-colored paint.274Please respect copyright.PENANArpFTAV1MEX
274Please respect copyright.PENANAarykAe3jFJ
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANA7kgdKkp2gg
274Please respect copyright.PENANArLYhsfPQr1
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.274Please respect copyright.PENANA65uSIRPecO
274Please respect copyright.PENANA5VxqBA96kM
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.274Please respect copyright.PENANA9tLZgbiYtX
274Please respect copyright.PENANA0J9BiWqYTF
I had killed another Rose274Please respect copyright.PENANAHQJRucDCh9
274Please respect copyright.PENANANOZEbHlRbI
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.274Please respect copyright.PENANAanehLbNBAV
274Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gcuktm1P9
I suffocated her with Your memory.274Please respect copyright.PENANAL2zJMexVgv
274Please respect copyright.PENANA3PWmHTFgYC
I loved her... to death.
