Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or this poem, which is called Wander-lust by Glen Gould.
'Beyond the east the sunrise; Beyond the west the sea
And East and West the Wander-Thirst that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness to bid me say goodbye,
For the seas call, and the stars call, and oh! The call of the sky!'
My newborn energy was driving me insane, and here was my Jasper, my mate, smirking at me and quoting old poetry.
"I hate you right now, Jasper."
"Darlin, just relax. I understand what you're going through. It's normal." He smiled at me.
"Come on sugar, we'll run to Canada, you'll feel better."
I got it stuck in my head to use a poem for this prompt, and then the poem I had in mind didn't work... so I found this one. It to me sort of captures the frantic energy of being a newborn and the excitement of seeing the world through new eyes.
