Elegance in Decay
A Lament of Beauty and Ruin
A wilted rose in twilight’s grasp,454Please respect copyright.PENANAepdxsHr1hE
its petals laced with silver dust,454Please respect copyright.PENANAIJl1rH6IAX
whispers secrets in the dark—454Please respect copyright.PENANAAimmeM3FCF
a bloom of sorrow, soft as rust.
The statues weep with hollow eyes,454Please respect copyright.PENANA4IZaeIbLpP
their marble lips now cracked and worn,454Please respect copyright.PENANA9Tod1rl2WS
yet in their ruin, grace remains—454Please respect copyright.PENANAoU4xKatDZ9
a beauty lost, yet never torn.
The chandeliers of broken halls454Please respect copyright.PENANAd3nWmDY9ad
still flicker with a ghostly gleam,454Please respect copyright.PENANAUnK63CzykL
their fractured glass refracts the past,454Please respect copyright.PENANAi7oj4E9Zbm
a haunting light—a dying dream.
And in the graveyard’s quiet breath,454Please respect copyright.PENANAqh2VGCUeoE
where ivy drapes the nameless stones,454Please respect copyright.PENANAwevzKI6Gbw
the echoes of forgotten songs454Please respect copyright.PENANA5IiWPOQLjE
still linger in the weathered bones.
For even death, so cold, so still,454Please respect copyright.PENANAUZQNvebZTP
bears artistry within its grasp—454Please respect copyright.PENANAOH8NxUs0l0
a painted veil of grief and dusk,454Please respect copyright.PENANA5swYAmvKIX
where beauty and the macabre clasp.
