Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQtVA8cRiU
its petals laced with silver dust,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdA7Zx9XW5n
whispers secrets in the dark—88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w6LnzLryz
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8ieu3ymki
their marble lips now cracked and worn,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1sGLfv4MC
yet in their ruin, grace remains—88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdET1XM6Co5
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2avZtqZJMf
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUeGpqZJya
their fractured glass refracts the past,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LaFgIkmRJ
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qqqE9sTMV
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbKMOMGVmO
the echoes of forgotten songs88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs6JqPjbZL
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9umhsyWHI5
bears artistry within its grasp—88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd9DqnhffB
a painted veil of grief and dusk,88Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BYzetf8xN
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
