More short story help - creepy kid on a dock?

I am looking for a creepy story - maybe about a black-eyed kid - and a guy with a boat approaching a dock. Any help?

The boat slowly approached the dock- the guy in it was looking for something… or someone… As he approached the dock he could make out a faint silhouette in the blackness. This one would be different. This child would have black eyes. As he neared the black eyed kid and the dock, the guy cursed his boat- always approaching, but never arriving

I had a boat like that once.

Are you looking for help writing a story or looking for help finding a story you read once?

I believe I’ve seen creepypasta about a black eyed kid on a dock.

I’m pretty sure it in one of the “It Happened To Me” threads on forteantimes.com. I remember reading something very much like this there about 7-8 years ago.

I dunno. A cool title would be “Shit Creek Without a Paddle”.

Well, if you put a curse on your own boat, expect weirdness and problems.

or maybe seeking recommendations for stories with a particular theme ?

That is ringing a super loud bell! Thank you, off to search.

Hang on, let’s get this straight…the kid has black irises, or someone punched him repeatedly in the eyes?

Yes.
