Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,221Please respect copyright.PENANACLR7fNZWXA
its petals laced with silver dust,221Please respect copyright.PENANA4auzl6uVDN
whispers secrets in the dark—221Please respect copyright.PENANASk5WdpwmM2
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,221Please respect copyright.PENANAazVYnQsZhK
their marble lips now cracked and worn,221Please respect copyright.PENANA1PyYSvLExH
yet in their ruin, grace remains—221Please respect copyright.PENANAjuCpHswJ44
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls221Please respect copyright.PENANA7bHpB7EaFL
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,221Please respect copyright.PENANAALBZNakHxE
their fractured glass refracts the past,221Please respect copyright.PENANAim4BENhsh2
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,221Please respect copyright.PENANApUeG7mASEe
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,221Please respect copyright.PENANASgDabP420X
the echoes of forgotten songs221Please respect copyright.PENANAAMic11Sm3z
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,221Please respect copyright.PENANAEjLxkhjcfW
bears artistry within its grasp—221Please respect copyright.PENANAaFRbuZ48hp
a painted veil of grief and dusk,221Please respect copyright.PENANAnWvgFAJ8kX
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
