I was lost259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CCw6js3Ov
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ928hgDCGKF
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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3gHVjGs2u

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgaKhk4iPN
Another Rose259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyUIANUfTr
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrkrQTOIQi
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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMXYjK1Yj9
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn2iGOeGJA
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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua4mBeS8aI

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. 259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdWRbo263E

It was as if You were by my side again.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9kIVXcbas

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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBUNrXy1sd

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...259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoTCPOJjfD
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31sTmnKSLw
Not You.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS1YcGJzHe
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZas9LMdTl
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...259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIoN6jzjyu
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2lI8KoNG5
I bought peach-colored paint.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUlbdfQTAX
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbEEilPGuA
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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVMBlVCY0s
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrBsBGk1q0
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.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnE2p0wGP2
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCUMsbGoeX
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17gc3PHdze

I had killed another Rose259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfZsU0kjzc
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6vle8Ehtv
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyl7SojngV
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoZCKZmgqa
I suffocated her with Your memory.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGe9FVCIZh
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CCAVpfpM6
I loved her... to death.
