I'll Never Let Go ...

He saw, he liked, he conquered.

He showed her the world.

She felt listened to, understood, felt .. loved?

She abandoned her part of the ship for him, for his world.

For life.

Major collision, too many scattered thoughts, feelings.

No time for mending.

The ship is sinking

So much undone, so much unsaid.

At least they go down together.

All of a sudden, she cherishes his gift

The gift of life.

He blows out his last breath

And falls forever asleep

She promises to never let go, she will remain strong, sincere, and alive.

"Now you know that there was a man named Jack Dawson and he saved me, in every way a person can be saved. I don't even have a picture of him. He exists now only in my memory." 

"I'll never let go..I promise, I'll never let go...."
