Hello again :) Thank you Titan09, twilight-of-my-life, and flonshoe for reviewing! This poem is a shakespearean sonnet, written in Edward's POV. And yes, I know, the title isn't very original but I couldn't think of anything else.
Disclaimer: I do not (and never will) own Twilight. -goes off to look for shooting stars to wish on-
Sonnet: A sonnet is a fourteen-line poem that follows a specified rhyme scheme. Shakespearean sonnets follow the pattern ababcdcdefefgg. It is usually about love.
The Angel
I sob tearless cries of pain as you die
Holding your broken body close to me
Will you leave me? Was it all just a lie?
Hugged by death's embrace, I will set you free
Suddenly you scream, weeping as it burns
Vampire venom coursing through your veins
One hope left: to drink your blood. My thoughts churn
With desire. Your blood is sweet as rain.
Can I trust myself and control my need?
I won't condemn you to this empty life
I remove the impurities with speed
Sighing as you fall into dreams of strife
You are safe. My love overcame my thirst
Because Bella, you will always be first.
Like it? Hate it? Any and all reviews are welcome! Which poem should I post next, the Edward biopoem, the concrete poem, the ode, the elegy, or the haiku? The Edward biopoem and haiku are written from a 3rd person POV and the other poems are all written from Edward's POV. I'm probably going to post one poem a day, so this little collection should be done by next Thursday. Please R&R :)
