Image description: A weathered human skull inset with bright red orbs in its eye sockets nestled within dense rose brambles, surrounded by fully bloomed pink roses and green foliage against a dark background. The skull features yellowed teeth in a partially open jaw, with cracks and aging marks throughout the cranium and facial structure. Brown thorny branches weave around and through the skull, while multiple large pink roses in various stages of bloom frame the composition. Smaller rose buds and serrated green leaves fill the spaces between larger blooms.
