The Black Rose

Why can I never look at a black rose without thinking of my fanfiction of the same name? LOLZ. As I was typing the phrase “black rose,” my keyboard tried to capitalise it. But it is true, of course; not every black rose is an allegory for something honourable. Some of them are just what they are on the surface; symbols of death, rot, and misery.

Thanks to everyone (all 1,624 of you) for your participation in this “legendary” Feminine Portraits & Artwork challenge in The Femmenomenal Chat.
