weigh anchor
hoist anew
this body
flag

soul
swung yardarm

my albatross
your
wedding vows

I do

crossbows
proclaim
feathered kills

maliced
bolts

misaimed

astray

strike deep
the wedge

a well kept
heartbreak

bleeds
brightly

upon
the sharks

for wind

Well dang, I wish I could say that I can't relate . . .
And one can be at sea too long, I suspect.

Nice style and fun to read. Two thumbs up!

We spend our whole lives trying to live, only to realize that we don’t know what life is truly about until it is too late.

wow . . . this is interesting. I don't lie about these things, by the way. I think we all should be a little more selective about comments. If every poem is "well written!!!!" then they are all worthless, for nobody can tell the difference. Long rant, though, not for here. Again, nice write.
