R.M.S.Titanic...
They called it the Ship of Dreams,
it sailed along like a tranquil reverie.
Some said it'll reach the States, some questioned it's destiny.
The dreaded night arrived at last. A powerful hand, a Demon's hand struck the sailing vessel, crushed it from the inside out, destroyed every single thing, sparing just a handful.
The mighty ship cleaved into half, plunging everything into the cold darkness of the infinite waters, plunging dreams, hopes, lives and love.
Titanic, a prisoner of fate, now lies underneath the Great Ocean, tranquil as when it first set sail, immortalizing a beautiful dream turned into a terrible nightmare...

I really liked this, 5/5! Would you just read two pages in my horror story called, 'If I kissed you' ? It's a strange name but it makes sense in the end.

Great job!!(: I really liked the beginning and end, but in the middle you had some pretty good descriptive words.  The titanic is a neat topic because that story is just sooo sad!  But you portrayed it well and I think you're pretty dang good at this type of writing!  Oooh and thanks for the suggestions and everything on my paper((; haha
