Edward's poem

In recognition of Breaking Dawn coming out tonight I wrote a poem of Edward's perspective from the first time he met Bella. I am planning to make this a really long poem going to the end of breaking dawn, but I am going to write it in bits. I hope you enjoy!

I thought I was a soulless creature damned to my fate

I believed that I would never find my place and wander around in pain

I watched as my family found their love

And I didn't know why I was cursed from above

I hated this power of mine; it killed me to hear their thoughts

I would hear their loving words and their secrets in their hearts

Over time I had learn to accept my destiny

I knew I was like the phantom of the Opera meant to be unhappy

This soulless creature behind this beautiful mask

I was attractive to everyone but to myself I was a mess

I was in a world that kept going on

I went through the motions that forever seemed to run on

Then one day I saw this beautiful face

This beautiful creature's blood seemed to boil in my veins

Since that moment I knew she was meant to be mine

I did not think it could be so I struggled to keep these emotions in control

How can a creature like me be with an angel from heaven?

When I was forever doomed to live in damnation

I did not deserve this new heavenly apparition

So I made a promise to myself to let my feelings go

Because she deserved to be with someone who had a soul

I could not let this innocent girl be the one to fall in love with me

When I knew I was forever meant to be unhappy

The harder I tried to let go the more pain I was in

I would try to leave but I felt that she in my life was as natural as sin

I finally accepted that I couldn't leave her because I could not live this way any longer

I could not stand the desperation inside getting stronger

I would go to her house at night to watch her sleep

It was weird but I just needed to hear her breathe

I needed to know that she was all right

Then there was that one night that changed my life

While she was dreaming she said my name

When she said it I felt like I had a soul again

I had something to live for and everything was new

My being of existence just shone through

Finally my life had a purpose and for the first time I was happy

This girl would be my reason to overcome and accept a new destiny.
