Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTUUmpQjch
its petals laced with silver dust,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPFm6QhLBz
whispers secrets in the dark—211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM3nkRIipj
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsoVjyJdY5
their marble lips now cracked and worn,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIunZvaELU
yet in their ruin, grace remains—211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwVQNc4G7z
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKdUMK18jc
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KLxdqowwu
their fractured glass refracts the past,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNtvCljjws
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEyr4x4y0y
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPD3sMEZqZ
the echoes of forgotten songs211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj2VCwydhD
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9TjGGofY3
bears artistry within its grasp—211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7b5ISMEkc
a painted veil of grief and dusk,211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANqtIuogdt
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
