Resting Above the Waves

There is a stone behind my eyes it sits calmly in a troubled sea. My peace is to rest there on that stones round summit naked of all emotion. I am not cold of heart just divorced from the waves. When I wish to swim, then I swim, often while watching others drown within themselves.
