Poem
As I walked on the ship it was like walking into my destiny A new life is awaiting for me Finally I can start my dreams I am free just me and the breeze That hits my face as we sail away I’m nothing special you see Just a young boy now at chasing a dream that I can be anything I want to be My mind is at peace as we sail away from the port Listening to the music my feet began to believe As I dance along to my own tune and see all those who believe just like me The rich take this trip for fun As the poor take the trip to become The difference between the two of us is made sure of Bottom deck is for us and upper floor is for glory But this is just a ride for me to travel and to see As the rich are pampered, we sing and gamble Card games and whiskey are what we do Who would of thought this ship wouldn’t make it though 1316 departed out to sea and to think many lives would be taken before reaching their dream It was a cold night when the lights started to flicker and passengers started to scream What happened next wasn’t something we could believe. The ship hit and iceberg and started to sink fast. Family and children were frantic. Life boats where loaded for only the best Mother and children first as other where trying to fasten their vest The water was cold as people where throw in by the boat itself The band kept their composer as they sang their best As other tried there hardest to survive this horrible mess. I myself held on tight, this wasn’t my dream, I was filled with fright. I shook inside for those who were dying and stayed strong for those trying to stay alive. It felt like hours even though it was quicker than that The boat broke in half and lives were lost like that. Now in the water myself I struggled to stay afloat. I felt my body letting go. As people screamed and shouted for love ones they had be separated from Reality set I was alone with no one to hold on to. I held on as long as I could my body numb, I could barely breath. The light shown and yell is anyone out there but I couldn’t be seen I could not speak nor move and I was filled with fear. My thoughts where lost and death was near as the boat shine its light one me and grabbed my hand. I awoke cold and wet, safe. But the thought still fresh in my head, the Titanic had sunk
