This is my first fanfic and I want to know what everyone really thinks, so be honest when you reply. This is about what Bella is thinking when Edward leaves her in New Moon.

Disclaimer- I don't own a damn fraction of these brilliant characters and the story. It's all Stephanie Meyer's.

You…don't…want me?

No.

a starless night

panther padding silently to her den

blackbird gliding gently to his nest

dark cloud vainly searching for itself,

drifting ever onward.

a thick velvet curtain falls over the scene,

changing nothing; for all is black.

Black.

I blink, refocus.

I shift my gaze away from

The harsh, indifferent world that dwells within the pupils of my

Once great love's eyes.

I hear him speak,

Speak words I try not to make sense of.

His intentions are clear.

He's leaving.

I reach forward in effort to cling to him,

Hold him to me,

Keep him here.

He reaches forward to push me away.

I close my eyes.

My brow tingles where

His lips gently brush against it.

Slowly, reluctantly, I re-open them,

Knowing what I'll see.

He is gone, disappeared.

He has left me;

In his place, leaving nothing.

He has detached himself from my consciousness;

In his place, leaving nothing.

He has untangled himself from my heart;

In his place, leaving nothing.

He has severed himself from my soul;

Nothing.

The empty word echoes silently back at me

From the depths of my mind.

Nothing.

The hollow condemnation reminds me of what I am without him,

What I'm worth in his absence,

What I have become.

Nothing…nothing…nothing…
