Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n3HNk6Pfx
its petals laced with silver dust,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR8b0GxjWH
whispers secrets in the dark—115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYUeSFpAa1
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQtqIRZqTC
their marble lips now cracked and worn,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv9ZJovQN6
yet in their ruin, grace remains—115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGemAoXn8p
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwR3ok558z3
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbpa7mK390
their fractured glass refracts the past,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvv81kxZ3p
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1vKjBHkTh
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4peUSfQqBk
the echoes of forgotten songs115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc6ry7v6V9
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorODikG1vn
bears artistry within its grasp—115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeSb30oDwl
a painted veil of grief and dusk,115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMVfyeLlGz
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
