Robert's Death. It is disturbing
Greetings,
I admit it took a long time to be able to write about it. I will keep it to very close to the end as the details is quite a few.
I had just left where Tommie was and was climbing the ship as it is at a steep angle, I am seeing people slide down the deck as the stern continues to climb, I am not getting far as I continue to climb to the stern. I am hearing the ship groan and hearing sounds that were ungodly. I figure things are crashing, but I try to climb as I promised Tommie I was going to survive to tell what happened. I am not far from where Tommie is, but determined to climb. The lights flicker and then went out. I think god, this is going to be difficult in the dark. I then hear boards breaking and things snapping as the ship started to split. I grabbed on to some railing trying to hold on. When the stern landed, I get thrown from where I grabbed the railing. There were 4 or 5 of us thrown. We all hit the splitting wiring of the ship. We all scream as we are being electrocuted. The others stop screaming as I think they are dead and I continue to fall. Bam, I hit one of the recipocating engines or the shaft. It is completely dark so don't know. What ever I hit, I scream again. Then a few seconds later, I land on water, it is extremely cold and it is pushing me further into the Orlop deck, I am thinking I am close to the split and maybe I can get out to maybe have a chance to survive. I keep being blown further into the stern. I am hearing stuff crashing. I am pinned against a wall. I try to grab onto something to pull myself. I am feeling like I want air, but know if I try to inhale, I will die and break my promise to Tommie. I get hit with debris as Titanic's stern continues go further into the ocean. I am trying to get out, I feel trapped. My chest hurts as my body is wanting air. Then after fighting to get out, my body couldn't hold the air in any longer. I gasped for air and instead get all this water rushing in. I grip my throat and am suffocating. After a few seconds, I go unconscious. Then it is dark. I think is this it and then a few minutes later, I died. I then see my body and say, "God Damn. I broke my promise to Tommie. I am sorry Tommie, Susan, Alyce, and Jimmy and to the people whom I killed." Tommie comes up behind me and puts his hand on my shoulder and says, "It is time to go Robert." I floated off with him.

Greetings,
It wasn't good, but atleast the writing was. I am assuming that is what you meant it was good. Thanks for listening. TTYL, Laters.

Re: Robert's Death. It is disturbing
yes Robert the details that you remember... the way you write it .. to me it sounds as if it just happened to you ..
i too remember my death and what was going on in my head just prior to it..my deathof course.
it must have been scary as hell to remember things like his death and such. i use to wake up with nightmares of mine.

Re: Robert's Death. It is disturbing
Greetings,
It feels like that every time I relive in dream or meditative state.
I wish I can put my thoughts into that life towards the end to change it, but feel trapped that I have to relive it.
I used to wake up in cold sweats from the nightmares. I mean I almost feel that suffocating water enter. It brings me out usually when I lose consciousness. I want to scream.
Thanks for listening. TTYL, Laters.
From,
Robert

Re: Robert's Death. It is disturbing
Greetings,
Same here, somewhat, I am usually very emotional and certain things set me off in to crying for no reason. It is somewhat strange for me to be crying for nothing. Thanks for listening. TTYL, Laters.
From,
Robert
