A white rose.

My favorite kind.

Pure and beautiful.

I was recieved a single white rose one day.

I heard a trick of making it last.

I hung it upsidedown on my cieling fan,

and dried it up.

It's been a year.

I still have it.

It's petals are all still intact.

I'm waiting to give it to you.

It's not much.

All it is,

is a rose,

still white,

but wrinkled like an old person,

and tinted golden.

It is fragile,

like my heart.

You have to be careful.

This is a test.

Can you really handle keeping my heart?

Just like my heart,

my rose can shatter and break.

Handle with care.
