I was lost208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBoP7Epjis
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVph3gUMRn
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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYux6YLjfk

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRwb1Veojw
Another Rose208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdglw7YvdmM
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHp5dtOOVC
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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCKrRrktAg

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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC2VUdpk2c

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. 208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNUAw8orvd

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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpAmYwWoLx

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...208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMlev9mB6x

Not You.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rJCsVmjxw

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...208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw9JkSJyUR

I bought peach-colored paint.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvb9xkS75B
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshSfeEBPce
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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZE09xWXjG
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B0dlmFnMf
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.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdde0dxei1u
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFylHjqsQm
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH3EoMjv6k

I had killed another Rose208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY9g6PbgIR
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7oD3TsDXg
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmH458ERs5E
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hL15xOLFS
I suffocated her with Your memory.208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQrCI25e6k
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CH11khtJ3
I loved her... to death.
