My most favorite poem of all time is Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe.
Please Review. I don't know if I continue it depends on the reviews.
Caroline walked through the forest, fuming, "How could Tyler have done that?" She muttered under her breath, "how could he cheat on me with some random slut!" She screamed out of frustration, she was fluster and it was obvious. She stopped at a tree, held onto the truck with one hand, and with the other fist she bunched it was hard as she could, sending splitters everywhere. Then she screamed in pain from the splinters in her knuckles. Where is someone when you need them? Caroline thought bitterly. Than as she choked back a sob, she heard Tyler calling her name. In a flash she was in front of him, screaming, "What the hell dick!"
"Caroline give me a second to explain." Tyler said trying to calm Caroline.
Caroline took in a deep breath and it was audible, even with out supernatural hearing, when she let it out through her nose. "Tyler, lets say I'm a branch," she bent down and picked up a branch, then she bent it a little and you could hear a small crack, "This is me the first few times you have cheated on me," She cracked it a little more, "left me when i need you," and then once more "And then now, when you kissed that girl. I don't want to hear the excuse that she jumped you with the kiss because you where obviously enjoying it. And now this me," She shaped the branch in half, "I have finally cracked. And that is my breaking point, because I'm breaking up with you." Caroline turned on her heel leaving a stunned Tyler in her wake. He let out a breath and walked away.
Caroline ventured into the forest even more, hitting a few trees her and there. But with each crack of her fist making contact with at tree a cry of pain soon followed. It was almost like a storm. Then she realized how close she was to the Original's property, and was surprised when no one came out to see was the commotion was all about.
Right on the edge of the property, she put her fist into a large oak, not even realized where she was and let out a blood curtailing scream. Then All the Originals were in one of the Many window that was outside of the house, watching the baby vampire beat the shit out of an old oak tree, then she crumpled to the ground cradling her bloody fist full of splinters.
One by one, Elijah, then Kol, then Rebecca, then Klaus, each approaching her with caution almost like she was a never pissed of mama lion who was wounded. She Kol stepped on a branch, starling the baby vamp. her head whipped to the side, seeing the family, and then she was up on her feet using her super sonic speed, fangs elongated, and fists at the ready. The thought of how much her hand hurt did even cross her mind.
Then Rebecca rushed to her side and hugged her around the shoulder. then Caroline broke, she crumbled to the ground Rebecca following her down. Caroline cried into Rebecca as she was rocked back and forth.
The Original brothers just watched what was happening. Rebecca stood still holding Caroline and walked past her brother and into the house. Klaus, Elijah, and Kol follow behind her like a lost puppy. Rebecca set Caroline on the couch then stepped back and took a good look at her. Caroline's eyes where red and puffy, her closed all wrinkled and blog from her fist and her running through the forest, her nose red, then Caroline sniffed and the way how her eyes looked so sad she looked like a little girl who got a scrap on her knee - minus the blanket and her thumb in her mouth Rebecca let her humanity come out and she felt sorry for Caroline. "Awwww, some her." Rebecca opened her arm to Caroline like a mother would and when Caroline walked towards her slowly and timidly, Rebecca wrapped her arm around her and walked her up stairs.
Caroline sat on the counter as Rebecca went to work, first she dug the splinter out of the baby vamps knuckles. Every splinter that came out a wince followed. "How did this happen?" Rebecca asked softy.
"Tyler cheated on me," Caroline said like a little child who was getting a boo boo fixed.
"Again?!" Rebecca asked Titian her head to the side but her eyes never left Caroline's hand. It was almost like gossiping with a nail-tech at the beauty salon. "What happened this time?"
"He was kissing some girl, and that was the last straw." Caroline was getting her voice back and sounded less small.
"Ok so off that subject, how is your song writing going?" Rebecca was about half ay through the splinters wedged in Caroline's knuckles.
When Caroline was about to answer, but she was on the edge of tears. She thought of this poem that her mother use to tell her when she was scared or sad. Then absent mindedly the words tumbled from her mouth
It was many and many a year ago,
In the kingdom by the sea.
There once lived a maiden who you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee
The maiden who lived with no other thought
Then to love and be loved by me.
Rebecca looked up curiously but didn't interrupt because Caroline's eyes were closed and she wasn't wincing any more.
I was a child and she was child
In this kingdom by the sea
But we loved with no love that was more than love
I and my Annabel Lee
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me
Caroline began to move her free hand like she was writing out the words to her favorite poem
And this was the reason that, long ago
In the kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud chilling my Annabel Lee;
So that her high born kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulcher
In this kingdom by the sea.
Caroline drew in a deep breath and visibly relaxed, as Rebeca pulled out many more splinters, a smile ghosting over her lips.
The angels, not half so happy in heaven
Went envying her and me
Yes! That was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the and came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee
Then caroline stopped, and Rebecca's head shot up and she whispered, "Continue," because Rebecca felt Caroline tense. Caroline closed her eyes, humming and chewing on the edge of her lip.
For the moon never beams with out bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling - my darling - my life and my bride,
In the sepulcher there by the sea
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
When Caroline reopens her eyes Rebecca is down and looking at her and Eijah, Kol, and klaus where in the door way. This made Caroline blush.
"That was as beautiful as you." Klaus said through sigh.
Caroline blushed.
If you want me to continue let me know. R&R. Review's much aprieted. Give me a poem by any one or a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, and I'll incorporate it.
