Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU8hsDgpae
its petals laced with silver dust,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NyMTXvLJs
whispers secrets in the dark—189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yLocmbjpM
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaMTXSodo5
their marble lips now cracked and worn,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvTEY7lGSf
yet in their ruin, grace remains—189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU3tPzXRqZ
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0TlbbHAnC
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAesPIwhrk
their fractured glass refracts the past,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBMx4AMmno
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVBtTvyusH
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2oN6osdNb
the echoes of forgotten songs189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP95IjExyx
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdynzVmc5o
bears artistry within its grasp—189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnEUf6K2jv
a painted veil of grief and dusk,189Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19rfyQp0dr
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
