When They Saw

by Lizzie Pond

When people looked at River Song the saw a completely different person than the Doctor saw. Please read and review.

River was fragile, most people didn't see that.

When they saw a confident woman. He saw a woman who still hated the dark.

When they saw a seductress. He saw a woman who woke up screaming and crying.

When they saw a dangerous murderer. He saw a woman who loved beauty.

When they saw a woman who showed a lot of skin. He was a woman who wandered around the TARDIS wearing an old cardigan.

When they saw an escaped criminal. He saw a woman who can't bear being kept in one place.

When they saw a woman who cared for no one. He saw a woman who was a daddy's girl and loved her family.

When they saw a woman with a gun. He saw a woman who sometimes hid behind her gun.

When they saw a promiscuous woman. He saw a faithful wife.

When they saw a witty woman. He saw a damaged little girl.

When they saw a woman who killed for no reason. He saw a woman who stood up for what she believed in.

When they saw a psychopath. He saw River.
