Our assignment was to write an "I am" poem about ourselves, but I thought it would be way cooler to write one for Edward Cullen. So, I did (and got in trouble for it), and I thought it was good enough to share with all of you. I hope you like it.
Edward Cullen
I am a monster pretending to be something else
I wonder why I was cursed to this life
I hear the simple yet imaginative minds of those around me
I see each detail of the world as clear as if it were under a microscope
I want to be normal, to be human, to be unafraid
I am a cursed, supernatural being
I pretend there is nothing wrong, that I am normal
I feel the burning in my throat, begging for a taste of blood
I touch the ever-changing world with cold, hard fingers
I worry for my family's safety as we risk exposure every day
I cry dry tears when painful memories boil to the surface
I am a soulless beast bound for an eternity of suffering
I understand I am built to be the perfect hunter - drawing in a prey I dare not touch
I say I could never hurt them even though the temptation is hard to resist
I dream of them, of her - her floral scent - la tua cantante
I try my best to remain in control, to be strong
I hope I won't give in, I won't be overcome
I am hers - a creature who can only love and worship a goddess by giving her all she desires.
I hope you liked it. I also wrote a Bella Swan poem.
