Diamond shape eyes unclear and lonely‚ Sinister through hostile spirits only‚ I stumble across these stones without a bone. A solitary confinement alone‚ From a barren zone the light transcend. Only in time‚ our minds will mend. Endless valleys and limitless stones. These bones- these bones they sit alone. The abyss‚ of rotten cavities with no fill‚ A system no power can unwell the

As for the setting it takes place at a family’s home. I think it takes place somewhere in the early 1900’s. I think it would make a difference to the story
