Get On

ā€œJack, there’s plenty of room on the door for you. Get on,ā€ I yell. Jack shakes his head before climbing onto the door next to me and we start drifting. A few minutes later, the door could not hold us both and it capsized. The water is so cold and I float here wondering why didn’t I just listen to Jack when he said it wouldn’t hold us both. All I see is the sea for miles around me, no boats or any...

The Door

The two held hands: Jack with the vast majority of his body in the frigid waters, while Rose’s body lay mostly on a floating door. Both were shivering, however Jack’s shaking was a death rattle; and while the two had just promised to ā€˜never let go’, it was obvious this promise was one that wasn’t meant literally.

The Sequel to Titanic

As jack and rose floated off on the door jack leaned in for a kiss with rose. It was a slow, long kiss. ā€œRoseā€ he said. ā€œI’m so happy-ā€œ Rose threw Jack off the door. ā€œWhat the heckā€ said jack. ā€œI don’t care about YOU, I want Cal Hockleyā€ said Rose. ā€œWell I Don’t think you can have himā€ said jack. ā€œwhy not?ā€ Asked Rose. ā€œbecause he’s frozen solidā€ said jack. ā€œHow would you know that?ā€ Said Rose. ā€œ ...

No Reason to Hide

I thought I would be left alone,

Forever waiting and lost,

Without you by my side.

There is space in my heart,
