Sometimes I think about how nice it would be if I could escape from this world. That's what the Twilight books are good for - feeding the fantasy of escape.
Thank you very much for reading.
Ecstatic Escape
I don't care if people say I'm obsessed with him.
Soon I will be apart from all normal humans.
They won't have to matter to me anymore.
People ask in derision, "Who wants to live forever?"
Who wants to alienate themselves from society?
Who wants to give up their humanity?
I do, I do, and oh, I do.
I never felt for anyone as I do for him.
The outsiders just wish they loved someone as I love him,
Or as he loves me.
Or as you'd love someone you'd run away with,
Someone you'd give up everything for.
People say they're content with their little human lives,
Only because they think their dreams are impossible.
And for most people, they are.
But for me – I've been given the chance of a lifetime,
The chance of an eternity.
I can be invincible and lovely and perfect.
I can live an immortal life with my beloved.
My reality can be just as beautiful as fiction.
I am giving up the human world, but I am not really giving up anything.
The vampire world is where I belong.
The forbidden fruit will not get me thrown out of the garden.
No, instead it is my ticket into paradise.
