A Midnight Sun Poem

by Dreamingeternal

The title says it all. Edward's emotions throughout the first chapter of Midnight Sun put down into poem-form.

Disclaimer: I'm running out of witty and creative ways to say this -- Twilight and it's characters do not belong to me.

Unlike my others, this poem has no title. I couldn't really think of a good one for it. If you have an idea or think it's better off untitled, let me know. Even if

you don't, any of your comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Delicate as blown glass,

As if one touch and she will break.

Desire pulses through me,

Almost stronger than I can take.

Two emotions side by side,

As opposite as earth and sea:

Desire to protect her,

Yet her greatest danger would be me.

I want to drink her blood.

I'm afraid this darker whim must win.

Already I imagine

My teeth against her snowy skin.

Thoughts swirling through my head,

(Not all of them my own)

I see my father's face,

And I know what must be done.

Turn the key in the ignition,

Push the pedal to the floor.

Farewell my helpless angel,

You shall torture me no more.

This poem is basically a summerization of Edward's thoughts throughout the whole first chapter of Midnight Sun (which, if you haven't read it already, can be accessed from Stephenie Meyer's official website). I hope you enjoyed it.
