BLEEDING LOVE

Edward x Bella

Disclaimer: I don't own this song, or the characters. I'm just a poor university student who really likes this song… and the book. Please don't sue me, I only have some pocket lint and a penny! :(

A/N: This is a song-fic about Edward and Bella, in Bella's POV. I got this idea one day at work, while listening to this song called "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis. I thought it fit those two so well, so I just had to write a story. I hope you guys enjoy this! Here's Bleeding Love.

Closed off from love

I don't know how long my eyes were blinded by your light. When you left me all those years ago… How much I miss your golden eyes…


I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen

But something happened

Yes… I remember when I had stepped into our quaint little school in Forks…


For the very first time with you

I was dazzled the first time I saw you.


My heart melts into the ground
Found something true

To this day— even though we are already one— you don't stop mesmerizing me; amazing me with your love.


And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

'What is she thinking, she has no chance,' you had told me once that those were the thoughts of the others.


But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you

I was well acquainted with those looks from them… But it didn't matter to me, because I was already unconditionally, irrevocably in love with you.


They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth

It didn't matter to me if you were rich, or a vampire. I wouldn't care if you were poor, because I love every part of you. Hell, I would actually like it if you didn't have all that money, then we would be a little closer to equality.


My heart's crippled by the vein

That I keep on closing

You did everything in your power— and more— to protect me.

Time after time, saving my life again and again… each of those acts closed in the gap between you and me.

You cut me open and I


Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

Bring me closer to this doubled-edged conundrum we call "love."


I keep bleeding

Every day I had missed you at school—


I keep, keep bleeding love

Every hour I thought about where you were, and what you did.


Keep bleeding

And every second I would wonder, 'Is this really happening to me?'


Keep, keep bleeding love



Your words were enthralling. They drew me just close enough— just right to the edge— and I was so close to you…


You cut me open

Then you disappeared.

Trying hard not to hear

When you had left, I thought my world had ended. My light had left me, and I was left to live the rest of my dreary life alone in the dark.


But they talk so loud

I worried everyone in town; from Charlie to even Lauren.


Their piercing sounds fill my ears

I lost count of the times I wanted to scream your name, hoping you would come and get me, to free me. Free me from my own nightmare without you.


Try to fill me with doubt

I had thought about ending it, because after all, a world without you was no world at all, right? I stepped onto the edge of the cliff, ready.


Yet I know that the goal

That was when I thought I was farthest away from you… but I was wrong.


Is to keep me from falling

It just brought me close again, your voice reverberating in my mind.

But nothing's greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness

When Alice had come to get me, I knew— I just knew— that I wasn't alone anymore. My light would be back once again.


I see your face

The Volturi only gave more reason to be back with you. To be yours was my calling.


Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth

We went through so much, just to be back at square one.


My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

But in your arms… I was home.


Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I had known that you wouldn't let James take my life away. His marks on my wrist proved that you would never let me go.Even when you reluctantly promised the Volutri you would change me.

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing

I knew you wouldn't let anyone stand in the way between you and me. And I knew that you would never let anyone take away my heartbeat. Not James, not Victoria… not even yourself.


You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding

But with love comes a price.


Keep, keep bleeding love

And I'm willing to pay with my last breath.


I keep bleeding

My fear will end, and I will be yours forever into the next universe and beyond.


I keep, keep bleeding love

Edward Cullen,


Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

I love you.

A/N: I hope that you guys liked this short little story (If you can call it that, haha). I'm sorry if it's a little abstract; I actually have a class to get to. So! If you have any constructive criticism for me, I'll be glad to take it to mind, and make changes (if necessary)! R&R! :)
