Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6aLzbPzc1
its petals laced with silver dust,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnD75nv14wE
whispers secrets in the dark—207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1s8bvd71S
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD6hFppng0
their marble lips now cracked and worn,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Twa9tNwwT
yet in their ruin, grace remains—207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQslG3SJ6u
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLjYhO7Q1j
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfJXs1hht9
their fractured glass refracts the past,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f3uzWUpKG
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4WDj8LdK1
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKzOOuSLxO
the echoes of forgotten songs207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD4qtvuNJb
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3upCrhS8bm
bears artistry within its grasp—207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQij8QQILw
a painted veil of grief and dusk,207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuSJ9qbyqO
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
