Thank you kremmy for reviewing! I am glad you enjoyed the definitions of the types of poems. It's nice to know that they aren't useless after all! This poem is elegy written in Edward's POV. It's about his...thoughts I suppose, when he is lying on his "deathbed" in the hospital right before he was made a vampire.
Disclaimer:
-sob- My last disclaimer for this ,o.o, I do not own Twilight or
any of it's characters. -Makes a last lunge for Edward-
Elegy: An elegy is a formal poem that reflects on eath or another solemn theme. It may or may not have an end rhyme or regular rhythm. It's purpose is to memorialize a person or reflect on a subject.
The Angel of Death
Living
in an era of war
I
thought not about the future,
The
only concern that tore
Me
up inside was the draft.
Who
knew I wouldn't live
Long
enough to be of age?
Who
knew that after the fever struck
My
parents would no longer be with me?
I
was on my deathbed
Knowing
no one would care or miss me,
When
the angel of death came
Promising
the dark fruits of eternity.
