Rose Requiem

In slumber, she is surrounded by the velvet embrace of red roses, their shadows dancing upon her skin like dark, gentle lovers. The roses, a symbol of passion and mortality, cradle her form, as if to protect her from the world's harsh light. Her lips, painted a deep, mysterious hue, seem to whisper secrets to the flowers that envelop her. In this serene tableau, beauty and melancholy entwine, a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of life and love. As the roses bloom and fade, so too does the beauty of the human form, leaving behind a memory, a ghostly impression that haunts the heart. Yet, in this moment, she is at peace, her spirit intertwined with the roses, a fleeting, ethereal beauty.
