2008 was all about declaring yourself – Team Edward or Team Jacob – and rocking the vote. Novel Novice Twilight used the 2008 U.S. Nat’l elections as inspiration for our highly successful Team Edward vs. Team Jacob Campaign.
For 2009, we turn to our original inspiration – using Twilight as a way to get people (young people, especially)educated about and involved in politics. And this year in real-life politics there is a renewed effort for bipartisanship. Here at NNT, we want the same thing for Team Edward and Team Jacob. That’s why we’re excited to launch the Team Switzerland Project (or TSP for short).
All this year, we are inviting fans to submit their videos, artwork, poetry and other creative works to show how Team Edward and Team Jacob can get along. Every Friday this year is Team Switzerland Day – and throughout the year, we’ll share everything we receive – as well as revealing exciting, new parts of the Team Switzerland Project. We’re also excited to partner with the Twilight Lexicon, His Golden Eyes, Twilight Parents Examiner & Twilighters Anonymous. Every other week one of these sites will host Team Switzerland Day!
You’ll find everything about the Team Switzerland Project right here — and on our homepage. Check out our latest offerings:

POEMS:TRUE LOVE
true love is crisanthiums in the eaves
a midsummer night is just a breath away
true love help you breath
dreaming on a midsummer day.
love is strong love is sweet
darkness is sad and a painful affair
BY GRACE
I will follow up with that poem as it is a work in progress.
GRACE
love is strong love is sweet
pain is a terible sad affair
two love you but you cant love two
because one is a brother and one is a lover
lover and brother need to come together
for peace to remain and you to remain.
GRACE
SONG:HALF WAY CAUGHT
Too many people think of me
And there is a war that rages in mystery
Two fight too much whether cold or warm
One brother one lover never calm
Chorus:
I’m half way caught in the mystery
I’m half way caught in the myth
Too far, too long no way to choose
Their tearing me apart
Two are killing me…
My brother is the warm one,
His skin is like the sun,
He tears me apart,
But my lovers my one.
Chorus
My lovers the cold one,
His sent draws me in,
His eyes change colors,
With his mood swings.
Chorus
Bridge:
They tear me apart
Pull me both ways
I’ll chose my lover but I still love my brother
End to end we meet.
hi plz dont copy the songs as I’m working dto improve them any tips would be helpful.

GRACE

Grace
