Dearest Bella
How do I put into words
what I've done to you?
I saw the look in your eyes
and it tore me to pieces.
Are we fated
to be Romeo and Juliet?
No.
A clean break.
It will be as if I never existed.
I…
I…
You…
We…
How could I do such a thing
to such a sweet, innocent girl?
How could I say I don't love you,
when in my heart
I know it's not true?
It's for the best.
You won't lose your soul.
You can lead a human life now.
You will not be put in
anymore danger because of me.
A clean break.
Yes.
As if I never existed.
I sounded so much
more convincing in the forest.
I can not do it!
It's driving my insane!
Your blood
it sings to me.
I remember its sweet smell!
But I will not let you lose your soul!
I will not curse you to this life of mine!
I will not let you become the monster
I
am!
But I can not stay away from you.
Oh, but I must!
A human lifespan is nothing compared to mine.
It is but a bleep
on the radar screen
that is my subsistence.
I will try my best
to stay away from you.
I do it for you
my love.
If I had a soul
would you be my soul mate?
Why do I write this?
It only hurts to do so.
You will never see this letter.

A/N: This is another poem I had to write for Creative Writing. I call it my angsty poem of angst because I can only imagine how angsty Edward was while he was away from Bella in New Moon. It is a letter poem from Edward to Bella that she will never see. It seems my stanzas won't work the way I want them. So, I stagered each one.
