Has anyone noticed roses when they're giving their last days?
To me they're just as beautiful if not even more than they were when they were still soft and giving away a velvet feeling at touch. The texture and color change on these is just a perfect contrast to the original pink they once were, as if they are aging gracefully.

Decay, only present in those who do not know how to see. Every single detail; the brown veins on the leaf, the curled petal ends, the soft natural light enhancing the pastel tones, death taking over and a glimpse of beauty shinning through.

Huddled up, standing tall until the end, a gracious end.
