Len's heart ached as he clutched the fragile photograph of himself and Flower, their shared memories etched into the fading paper. 

The image felt like a distant echo of a time long gone, yet its bittersweetness engulfed him. His trembling fingertips gently traced the contours of Flower's face, capturing a moment frozen in the embrace of eternal bliss. In the photograph, they stood beneath a  canopy of cherry blossoms, their smiles weaving into the delicate whispers of the wind.

As he gazed upon it, a wave of longing and regret washed over him, tugging at the delicate heartstrings that had once bound their souls. How could he have allowed the opportunity to tell her how deeply he cherished them? The memory of their soft, raspy voice, reminiscent of a soothing guitar melody, resurfaced in his mind, a source of happiness and comfort that he could never replace.

Len let out another heavy sigh, closing his eyes as he surrendered to the torment that had settled in his chest. The pain seemed to weigh down upon him, making it increasingly difficult to draw breath. It was as if his lungs were not being filled with air but rather drained of vitality. Yet, despite the relentless ache, the longing for her presence persisted.

In the midst of the solitude that now engulfed him, Len pondered the meaning of relationships. 

What did they truly signify, and why were they so melancholic?
