While I am not completely sure what this is about, it just struck me (after looking up some of the more obscure words in here) that it mentions old, aging things (usually regal in nature) several times. I know it mentions trinkets in the title, but I feel like there is more to it. I think it may be about the narrator losing someone important to them, or the narrator killing someone. For example, they mention "I burn the clothing before I dig into the ground." So, they are burning the evidence before burying them. Then they mention they sing a song before burying them (their epicedium). Plus, they keep saying "your going to wish you hadn't run" which could be interpreted as saying "this is what you get for being a coward" or just "this is what you get for running away."

Something like that.
