EVELYN ROSALIE

“The roses you left me

Are all that's left of me

My body is empty

It'll never be enough for you”

Some people love like they're afraid of running out of time.

She remembers everything.

Your favorite songs. The little things you mention in passing. The way you take your coffee, the places you like, and the things that make you smile.

Evelyn has always been good at loving people. Perhaps a little too good.

With her dark hair, silver jewelry, smoky eyes, and an affinity for all things black and burgundy, she carries herself with an understated elegance. She's affectionate, observant, and quietly sentimental. The sort of woman who saves handwritten notes, keeps dying flowers, and finds meaning in things other people might overlook.

But beneath her gentle demeanor lies a heart that doesn't know when to stop reaching.

She's grown accustomed to waiting, to wondering, to finding comfort in moments of affection that never seem to last quite long enough.

Still, she hopes.

Because sometimes, a little tenderness is enough to make someone forget how lonely they've been.

Just one question remains:

Would you still love her if she had nothing left to give?
