I shiver with pleasure
At the touch of his cold hands.
Hands, hard as stone and body statuesque.
His eyes captivate me as he stares
At me with adoration.
Today they are the color of topaz.
He has fed, which always reminds
Me that it is dangerous for us to
Be so close to one another.
But the forbidden fruit always
Tastes the sweetest.
The smell of him is intoxicating,
And I feel lightheaded once again.
I still can’t believe he loves me
Just as much as I love him.
And the ongoing torture that I
Put him through because the scent
Of my blood.
But we take the risk because
We need each other to complete our souls.
Mortal and vampire.
A relationship so unusual.
Warms lips touch cold marble lips
And my heart beats faster than it should.
I tangle my fingers through his beautiful
Bronze hair and pull him closer.
I need to feel every part of him.
He pulls away.
“You’re going to be the death of me, Bella.”
I smile and he lifts his hands to hold my
Face between them.
I close my eyes, this is Heaven.
I never thought that someone as
Ordinary as me would ever fall in love
With someone as extraordinary
As my Edward. My vampire.
My Soul Mate.
At the touch of his cold hands.
Hands, hard as stone and body statuesque.
His eyes captivate me as he stares
At me with adoration.
Today they are the color of topaz.
He has fed, which always reminds
Me that it is dangerous for us to
Be so close to one another.
But the forbidden fruit always
Tastes the sweetest.
The smell of him is intoxicating,
And I feel lightheaded once again.
I still can’t believe he loves me
Just as much as I love him.
And the ongoing torture that I
Put him through because the scent
Of my blood.
But we take the risk because
We need each other to complete our souls.
Mortal and vampire.
A relationship so unusual.
Warms lips touch cold marble lips
And my heart beats faster than it should.
I tangle my fingers through his beautiful
Bronze hair and pull him closer.
I need to feel every part of him.

“You’re going to be the death of me, Bella.”
I smile and he lifts his hands to hold my
Face between them.
I close my eyes, this is Heaven.
I never thought that someone as
Ordinary as me would ever fall in love
With someone as extraordinary
As my Edward. My vampire.
My Soul Mate.
Author notes
I am in love with Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga and this poem is about the love that the two main characters, Bella and Edward go through every time they are intimate with one another. I do hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Perhaps you could change ' Warms lips touch cold marble lips' to 'marble ones'? Repetition, you know.
Any way, I like the series, too.
And: Nicely written. -
