Bering Sea Gold

Hey folks, been a minute. Got a poem I’ve kept under wraps to post when I don’t feel like writing. Just happens to be one of those times, plus it’s exceedingly applicable. I sincerely hope you enjoy. Without further ado…


Bering Sea Gold

Bering Sea Gold,

He barely sees straight.

A man can never know his fate.

~

Barely alive,

and bearing the dive,

the man struggles, but never folds.

~

Buried then

in Bared teeth,

this tests the man’s belief.

~

Sail the strait,

but never the narrow,

find the key,

take an arrow.

~

One day he’ll haunt an aged barrow.

The Old and the Lost

Good evening! I usually don’t post this late but uh… it’s my website. This one’s about another dream I had. Have not been sleeping very well, unfortunately. I hope you all like it. Without further ado…


The Old and the Lost

In my dreams again…

Old friends,

I like to say,

knowing that we never were.

~

They are kind in this place,

much unlike the way I remember.

There’s a comfort here,

a mentor,

a lover,

a friend.

~

I hear the din of distant dishes

like wispy echoes

of a kindly kitchen.

~

The mentor speaks,

in the way a grandfather would,

with a gentle and firm german accent,

“Are you trying to win her back?”

No, I respond in my head,

I’ve already got her.

~

An old friend sits down at the table.

“Can I get you anything else?”, I ask with sincerity.

“No, buddy. We’re here for you!”, the old friend says excitedly.

The scene fades to black.

~

I awake again to the dark.
