Adapting To The Unknown

I sense something has altered within me,
Perhaps for the better, maybe for the worse,
All I know is that I am no longer Bella Swan,
The clumsy human who is just so normal,
But Bella Cullen, the nimble vampire girl.

In the last week I received mysterious signs,
Creeping up in the depth of nightmares,
Foreboding messages of the upcoming event.
The transformation that cannot be reversed,
A change no one in this world has faced before.

I have to embrace this new power of mine,
Whatever it may be, for it is in good hands,
Never shall I fail to use my strengthened talents.
I will train and learn how to defend others,
For the approaching battle will be a deadly test.

Although my name still remains the same,
So much of who I was has been alternated,
Speed has consumed what used to be inert.
Sharper senses cling to my knowledgeable mind,
Helping me know what's to come, to be prepared.

I see this as an opportunity to start fresh,
A new life with a family that belongs to me,
Members of whom would risk their lives.
Past memories now crushed straight to dust,
For this is where my life story shall truly start.
