These flowers are the roses that Kevin gave me after a fight on our 9 months. They are beautiful, aren’t they? The life has withered out of them for five months. I forgot about them on my shelf at the very top. I took these photos because I find these flowers to be metaphorical. Just look at them, just look. They are stunning and so full of colour still. Like my relationship with Kevin, there is something beautiful about the end of it. Our relationship is gone, and like the flowers, can not be revived. The water in the vase, the key to life for the flowers, has evaporated like the passion that once surrounded my relationship with Kevin faded. Yet, the memories of us, like the colour of these flowers, lingers on for months afterwards. It is sad and dreary but remarkably peaceful.
As Miranda Lambert wrote:
I feel like the flowers in this vase
He just brought them home one day,
“Ain’t they beautiful” he said
They’ve been here in the kitchen
And the water’s turning grey
They’re sitting in the vase
But now they’re dead
Dead flowers

The story: My name is Sydney Trendell. I’m head over heels in love with my horse Lightning. He has helped me through depression and so much more than that. I bought Lightning for myself when I was 14 years old. I paid for all expenses by myself, including lessons and showing. Unfortunately, when I left for university, I chose a school 3 provinces away. Lightning couldn’t follow me because I didn’t have the money. If I win this photography contest, I will receive $2000 to visit someone I love. I want to visit Lightning! I want to use as much of the prize money as I can to bring my pony down to University with me. Think you can help me out? Just like the page and the contestants will show up. It means so much for you to vote for me - as well, if you reblog and spread the love. Tumblr put me in first briefly today - and I’m hoping to defend the throne through continued help.
Thank you so much. I’m sending all the virtually cookies out there.

My name is Sydney Trendell. I am in this photography contest on FaceBook, I swear it isn’t a virus. To vote, just like the Farmer’s Dairy page and all the contestants will come up :)
It is for Farmer’s Dairy, and I’ve uploaded my photo here. If I win I get $2000 to see someone I love and and I’m hoping to get reconnected with my long lost pony who is provinces away.
YOU CAN VOTE ONCE A DAY. SOMEHOW PEOPLE ARE HIKED IN VOTES AND I WOULD REALLY LOVE IT IF TUMBLR SHOWED ME SOME LOVE AND KICKED THEIR ASS :) ESPECIALLY ALL YOU COUNTRY/HORSE LOVERS THAT FOLLOW ME OR I FOLLOW!
Backstory: I bought Lightning for myself at 14 years old with pennies that I’d been saving since I was 3 years old. I pay for all board, farrier, lessons, tack, everything by myself. So - I’m 3 provinces away for university, paying for a horse I can’t ride. This competition will change that :)

Meet Mr.Shiverz. Yes. That is his name. He is my parent’s pug, and we have a mostly hate/hate relationship.
