written on 8/9/2008 A Twilight saga based poem in the perspective of Jacob Black.
Waiting in the background, in the deep depths of your mind.
Searching in the wilderness for a heart I’ve yet to find.
I phase without a thought, views of reality wearing thin.
Dreaming with all my might of a love I’d die to win.

I wish he’d disappear, leaving me to have my say.
Letting us be as we should: it is the natural way.
I struggle with my conflicts, my friends prying in my head.
All around me seem to sense my desire to see him dead.

He destroys you every day; I can see it in your eyes.
Holding yourself together; a shield as your heart cries.
You came to me to pick you up, to heal you when you fell.
But instead I find I’m falling, enraptured by your spell.

With me you could be happy, your eyes would finally dry.
I’d be your magic island; in my warmth is where you’d lie.

Or would you rather freeze, venturing near the Midnight Sun?
To exist in darkness, trapped by ice, your life undone?

No. I need to have you with me, not just inside my head.
For if you choose a path with him, you’ll only end it dead.
