Well, here's my second poem. This is in Edward's POV, written to I Caught Fire (In Your Eyes) by The Used.
So yes, this one is based on Twilight ;)

I Caught Fire in Your Eyes
I caught fire
When my heart stopped beating
On the doorstep of death;
I was a monster.
Twilight was mine,
Where I was free to feast,
Free to spill blood upon the dark night,
Free to be a murderer.
I was alone
Amongst my kin,
Banished by the sun,
Lost without my humanity.
I caught fire
When you emerged
Like a blooming flower;
You were irresistible.
The monster pushed me
To take your life,
To quench my thirst,
To give in to my addiction.
I fought the hunger,
Determined to keep the monster at bay,
To keep you alive,
To love you.
I caught fire
When you came to my side,
When you made me smile
And chased the darkness away.
My addiction grew,
I was dangerous,
But I couldn't leave,
Just like you.
I kissed you
Amidst the sunlit diamonds,
Your hands warm against mine,
My dead heart swelling.
I caught fire
When you became the prey,
Your days numbered,
My mind ripping at the seams.
You needed to be safe,
Away from the rain,
Away from the hunter,
Amongst the melting sun.
I became the hunter,
Laying a fake trail,
Trying to save my love,
Only to become the fool.
I caught fire,
When the hunter had you,
Broke you,
Tried to drain you.
You were burning,
Dying from the inside;
I ripped the hunter away
And rid you of his poison.
I hated seeing you,
So helpless and pale,
But I saved you from becoming
What I hated the most.
I caught fire
In the eyes of my angel,
My eternal love,
My Bella.
