I was lost337Please respect copyright.PENANAIOEgZbNFiZ
337Please respect copyright.PENANAcCsQrzxOnK
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAXZh3inhq2q

And then, in the abyss, I saw her.337Please respect copyright.PENANALqn3UocpTY
Another Rose337Please respect copyright.PENANAXKVFZEoi1u
337Please respect copyright.PENANAHO1DRXfdWl
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAEkAC4uSvrX
337Please respect copyright.PENANAwSC9uutXjq
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAa7j4BPUxvx
337Please respect copyright.PENANAsJeDgloZoQ
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. 337Please respect copyright.PENANACKAqbobyWP

It was as if You were by my side again.337Please respect copyright.PENANAQWPndoGux8
337Please respect copyright.PENANACCFXwr2pK0
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAiZEkwgb8Uk
337Please respect copyright.PENANAZRNffucTNC
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...337Please respect copyright.PENANACcxa2Wf3Qd
337Please respect copyright.PENANAnUf1mMC9TE
Not You.337Please respect copyright.PENANAVrelNWVkCB
337Please respect copyright.PENANAhqF4skQCSC
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...337Please respect copyright.PENANAICiXRkucPC
337Please respect copyright.PENANATvx7ohLhGJ
I bought peach-colored paint.337Please respect copyright.PENANALTxouANfhl
337Please respect copyright.PENANAoLhDuf0EgF
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAuQlhWTvMXz
337Please respect copyright.PENANAsVrWYuxoXu
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.337Please respect copyright.PENANAoDGqh2T9LQ
337Please respect copyright.PENANAqkLtbEwnBQ
In my misguided attempt to bring You back, I had condemned her to the same fate.337Please respect copyright.PENANAuTd6dNR8e9
337Please respect copyright.PENANAaqDJ3J4ZaE
I had killed another Rose337Please respect copyright.PENANAwLpd60hzGt
337Please respect copyright.PENANABUvgw5gt78
Not with malice, but with love. A love she accepted and cherished, unaware it had never truly been hers.337Please respect copyright.PENANAIRUmQ7fDrL
337Please respect copyright.PENANAnzwfoYkTJU
I suffocated her with Your memory.337Please respect copyright.PENANAyJhQvYy5So
337Please respect copyright.PENANA4ulovfddMn
I loved her... to death.
