Literature Text

Throughout the ages,
Throughout the years,
Of meeting you, defeating you
Of holding back my tears.

Each time I see you
You fade a bit more,
Your mood swings as constant
As waves on a shore.

No longer your prisoner,
But I'm still only yours;
Hearts body and soul
Of this I am sure.

Just come with me,
We'll see the stars!
So wonderful together,
We could go so far.

Nothing is forever,
I know this to be true,
But we could laugh at eternity,
Just me and just you.

The hole you created
When you left me that day,
Has not yet been filled
And I want you to stay.

I can't keep you captive,
Can't just lock you up, lose the key.
If you'd just let me help you
Then we'd both be free.

I love you, you know-
I couldn't tell you before.
All that time that we've lost,
Our own battles, the War...

After everything we've accomplished,
(We've been through so much!)
Yet you still shy away
From forgiveness, my touch.

You don't want my forgiveness,
Don't want the guilt and the pain.
You've nothing left to lose,
But so much more to gain.

BANG!

The shot has been fired,
Lucy's spoiled it all.
You who climbed so high,
Now with so far to fall.

Don't leave me now,
I can't just lose you!
So many things to see yet
In our box of bluest blue.

I hold you close,
But you're slipping away.
What brought us to this,
Where we are today?

This can't be the end,
I won't live without you.
How can it stop here
After all we've been through?

You always come back,
Though not ever for me.
You're dying in my arms, my love,
And still you won't see.

I can't be alone,
Not now, not again.
Gone once more I still miss you,
My lover, my friend...
Sixteen stanzas, and this one might be a little hard to figure out. This, for the record, has got to be the most depressing poem I've ever written. Spoken by the Doctor to the Master on their Valiant, their final minutes together.

Ever heard the song "The Sound of Drums" by Chamealon Circuit? This reminded me of that song, and I read it kind of in David's voice! :)
