Stone Grave I watched black hearted men Carve caskets out of sin With laughing eyes and #lifeless smiles As if they had been doing this a while. My nature stirred unspoken words As I sat behind my window pane Curious if they'd lived in vain or If the times had shaped this shame. Women passed by in black gowns, Wiping sparkles from their eyes of light pressed to see what the men bring To this town of meager means.

I'm standing there, among them. Surrounded by the song. But, I am not with meaning. My stone legs rest upon a pedestal Has fear held me tight? Unmovable, I can only stand in place As radiant white flashes by, whispering goodbyes -
