The keeper of the Stone.
The shadows I see.
It's a beautiful day as I walk through the town, stop by the old church, and look around. Gazing behind it, I discern an ordained shadow. The shadow points to an old graveyard with slate-smooth stones. There is a picture of a skull and crossbones, so I dropped to my knees and read it inscription, said "lost at sea." Just ask if you need me. So I went to the beach, sat in the sand, and saw these words in the sky. I'm with the waves that come by your side. I'm in the air as you breathe in a cool summer breeze. Just look! I'm right by your side. I'm here all the time. I just stopped by to say hi, and I still love you deep down inside.
