Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFDZDAvt78
its petals laced with silver dust,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsWL4qVV5r
whispers secrets in the dark—181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTOV5XVtKn
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHE3hXPDbn
their marble lips now cracked and worn,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL3Y5dqiek
yet in their ruin, grace remains—181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xi2Wl31zW
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkc5RylNB5
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVREBPtIHF
their fractured glass refracts the past,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtklyqLhQC
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHMyCPkjNb
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nKB44wv0u
the echoes of forgotten songs181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjxjDmB1wz
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDMRZ08UNX
bears artistry within its grasp—181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDJrVXCA7y
a painted veil of grief and dusk,181Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohwdJvbyHp
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
