I was lost123Please respect copyright.PENANApuHrQKAUb4
123Please respect copyright.PENANA2wRb7X3uPl
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANAWBfoCqMWj7

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.123Please respect copyright.PENANA6lCxH3FrhF
Another Rose123Please respect copyright.PENANAngRRecE3ib
123Please respect copyright.PENANAq4M0fY8dIh
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANA34zlp6Po45
123Please respect copyright.PENANAKAPxffLumO
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANAXkkI0EN9ql
123Please respect copyright.PENANATnIg743OBY
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. 123Please respect copyright.PENANA3X79jM5G3k

It was as if You were by my side again.123Please respect copyright.PENANAk6geDsVcIp
123Please respect copyright.PENANA1O9uL2RDzu
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANApTkiN8FCcP

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...123Please respect copyright.PENANAgHGin2GwXQ
123Please respect copyright.PENANAcj5yPFBKKL
Not You.123Please respect copyright.PENANA1RqMX4sbMs
123Please respect copyright.PENANAoZQnqgV8Ik
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...123Please respect copyright.PENANA3KQt1uSZ29
123Please respect copyright.PENANAQXZzK4TtxD
I bought peach-colored paint.123Please respect copyright.PENANA1dClmsuz8B
123Please respect copyright.PENANASHtHEq6sea
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANAdzSbfITx7H
123Please respect copyright.PENANADOKNNyAiMO
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.123Please respect copyright.PENANAEYGOQytUUc
123Please respect copyright.PENANAYzsrLMlpao
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.123Please respect copyright.PENANABxzg4u1YCf
123Please respect copyright.PENANA1bRKpyVdgT
I had killed another Rose123Please respect copyright.PENANAcONRiQy08J
123Please respect copyright.PENANAt7mPCaqht6
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.123Please respect copyright.PENANA0GFxpwbblR
123Please respect copyright.PENANAtLyifU9qnE
I suffocated her with Your memory.123Please respect copyright.PENANABZuUmjPqFQ
123Please respect copyright.PENANAJIjvDhAR8i
I loved her... to death.
