Poem for Wednesday

This poem I wrote for my favorite modern Romeo and Juliet (Edward and Bella). I love the Twilight Saga that Stephenie Meyer, who is one of my favorite authors, made me like reading about romance and so I began reading more and more romance books.

Well, here is the poem I wrote about Edward and Bella based on the new recent movie "New Moon."
Note: The style/form of this poem is a villanelle.

Edward & Bella

You can’t leave me. We’re meant for each other
And we’re supposed to be together forever.
How could you leave me? You promised me

you'd stay with me as long as I wanted you.
But, you lied. Did you think yourself clever?
You can’t leave me. We’re meant for each other,

so you can’t leave me because I’ll be old and blue.
You said you’d want me still while you’d stay young forever.
How could you leave me? You promised me—

were we meant to be like Romeo and Juliet? Give me a clue
of what we can do, so you can stay. Morever,
you can’t leave me. We’re meant for each other,

because we love each other like dew
on a tree. You couldn’t resist me, so how could you ever—
how could you leave me? You promised me!

I don’t care what you think. I always knew
we were different but I love you. Whatever,
you can’t leave me. We’re meant for each other—
how could you leave me? You promised me.
