Okay, this is something I wrote for a school project, it's basically a summary of Twilight. If you've ever tried to write a sestina, you know it's hard, but it's basically six stanzas of six lines, and you repeat the same six words at the end of each of the lines, in different orders. Please review, but please be kind!

Twilight
The first time her gaze fell upon him
And the fear of discovery flashed in his eyes
For the first time in her short life
She wondered if she would die, let this be the end
Perhaps his hatred would last an eternity
Who would have thought they'd end up in love?
When she realized one night she was truly in love
With the truth revealed, she only thought of him
The fact of the matter; he lived for eternity
A golden hue colored so deeply his eyes
A sign that, for him, it was already the end
Though he lived, he showed no signs of life
She ran faster, a quick glance behind, trying to hold on to what was left of her life
Then he appeared, the one with whom she was in love
She left with him, avoiding what could have been the end
She stared at her hands, when she finally gazed at him
He glared at nothing with smoldering eyes
And said, "Do you realize you've endangered your life for eternity?"
His hand in hers would keep her for eternity
She watched his face, ignoring the stream behind her, bubbling life
When he stared at her with those soft eyes
She realized that mutual was the feeling of love
Gathering courage, she leaned in toward him
A kiss, the first one, that never wanted to end.
But perhaps coming sooner was the end
He caught her hand, reminding her of his promise for eternity
She cried when she realized never again may she see him
All of this caused by a threat to her life
Another kind of the one with who she was in love
Evil, this time, with crimson red eyes
When she smashed into the wall, she could see only his eyes
But she did not scream, prepared for this to be the end
She knew that death was the way to save her love
Never would she experience the promised eternity
She fell under when he bit her, letting go of life
When she opened her eyes, she saw only him.
She looked at him, then traced the scenery with her eyes
She'd asked for life, but he imagined the end
"Aren't you afraid of eternity?" he asked, to which she replied, "No, only losing my love."
