My Heart of the Ocean Necklace (Thing I Love the Most)

Feeling the warm breeze against my skin on the Titanic
Ocean water glistening like diamonds
Nothing surrounding Titanic but the ocean
Standing at the very front of Titanic
Spreading my arms out like wings
Pretending I'm flying
Letting my spirit soar through the air
Sunset painting throughout the evening sky
With my true love standing behind me
Placing his hands gently on my waist
Hearing the sounds of soulful music
Like angels calling gloriously
As I continued spreading my arms like wings
My true love made me face him and
A miraculous thing happened
We did our first kiss under the sunset
With shades of crimson, violet, and orange
My heart melted as we resumed kissing
This was the last time Titanic sees daylight
When darkness invaded the peaceful sunset
Abruptly
The Titanic collided into a massive iceberg
Like a meteorite colliding onto the Earth
Everybody had a race for survival
Fighting to save our lives
Death of Titanic
Most of us still stranded on the damaged ship
Titanic sunk deep into the ocean blue
Sending us into the frigid Atlantic
As my true love and I waited to be rescued by one of the boats floating nearby
I confessed with a hint of passion that I loved him
Then he told me a promise and to never let go of that promise
While later, still waiting to be rescued
I saw one of the boats approaching us victims who landed in the ocean
Thinking my true love was sleeping, I tried waking him saying there's a boat
To my astonishment
He did not answer
Frozen like a statue, eyes closed
A melancholy blue silhouette
Deep inside, I felt this heavy sensation
He passed away
My heart felt like it was tearing apart into shreds
Tears poured out of my eyes like raindrops
Suddenly
I recalled his promise
I won't give up, no matter what happens
So I've been rescued by one of the boats
I'll always recall my Titanic experience
But the one thing I'll never forget is my true love
His face always paints inside my mind, the way he looks at me with love in his eyes
Then I felt something inside my pocket
I took the object out and realized what it was
It was the Heart of the Ocean necklace
The blue heart reminding me of the ocean
The white diamonds like foam from the water
As the years go on, the Heart of the Ocean necklace became my most prized possession
Becoming special to me
When my daughter turns 18 years old, this necklace will be passed on to her
Sharing the thing I cherish the most, passing on the memories
Every time I gaze at the necklace
The way the shade of the blue is deep
Reminds me of how deep love can be
