The February air is a jagged blade, freezing the breath in one's lungs as long, distorted shadows bleed across the garden. From the oppressive darkness, unseen eyes track every lingering touch, every soft word exchanged between you and her new lover. The cloying scent of roses mingles with the bitter taste of betrayal. As the boyfriend finally departs, a pale, silent silhouette manifests from the gloom, leaving a nameless gift upon the porch. The atmosphere thickens, heavy with a desperate, timeless obsession, as a freezing whisper brushes against the nape of the neck: 'You are mine.' The night has lost its peace; it is now haunted.
