Journey(Villanelle)

Journey(Villanelle)

A journey bold tells the tale the tongues have told,
Incognito to obtain a value at the end of earth
Mission so bleak is the legend we seek.

Setting sail without sight in the darkest pitch of night,
Minds of gold, hearts burried in treasure.
A journey bold tells the tale the tongues have told.

To honor such a voyage by seaside along rode a scribe,
Such big aspirations, eager to write history.
Mission so bleak is the legend we seek.

"Cursed", said in a laugh, his write would be his first and last,
The ocean grew angry, stormy skies spit down rain.
A journey bold tells the tale the tongues have told.

One towering wave took them to their grave,
Scroll in a bottle floats to the surface.
Mission so bleak is the legend we seek.

Riches forgot lay next to the ships final resting spot,
Message washed ashore leads the next group to explore.
A journey bold tells the tale the tongues have told.
Mission so bleak is the legend we seek.

Thanks Mark, glad you read and thought so because I had such a hard time writing this one and I don't know why the brain just wasn't functioning properly or something lol. Hope all is well brother.

I hate when we don’t talk
Never meant to say that
Trying to accept it’s someones fault...

Life

A good morning,
to struggle opening the eyes wrestling the bed blankets away….
It’s flooring...
