BEAUTY AND DECAY! AND EACH EMBRACING THE OTHER!#also don't @ me I know invitation to eternity isn't strictly speaking a DatM poem but I'm twisting it a bit for my agenda ok #I vaguely remember seeing a DatM compilation post last year but ofc tumblr's search function won't work so i literally can't find it again #so HOPEFULLY this one is not a an accidental copy because that would be embarrassing 😶#it is with only the utmost restraint that I did not use the der tod und das mädchen poem #and only bc I assume it's been used in every other iteration at this point and I don't want to be a total copycat #I kind of hate how parts of this turned out but wtv I can't deal with this anymore so I'm throwing it out into the world
