This is Day 2 of my New Year's Project to publish a oneshot or poem every day during the month of January. Lots of Doctor Who, lots of other stuff as well (details on my profile). Enjoy!
I met you in my normal way
I grabbed your hand and told you "run!"
I thought I'd only spend the day
You wanted to know more. You won.
.
Fantastic Rose with searching eyes
Who never hoped for what she craved
The girl I couldn't leave behind
The girl who couldn't stay away
.
I showed you every burning star
And took you to the ends of time
You showed me how to mend a heart
And told me when I crossed the line
.
Fantastic Rose with fearless eyes
Who never hoped for what she craved
The girl I couldn't leave behind
The girl who couldn't stay away
.
The end was near, I took you home
I told you "live, and think of me"
You would not let me die alone
And let unfathomed power break free
.
Fantastic Rose with burning eyes
Who never hoped for what she craved
The girl I tried to leave behind
The girl who wouldn't stay away
.
I would not take your sacrifice
Fantastic, foolish human child
I praised you as I paid the price
And as I burned away, I smiled.
.
Fantastic Rose who dried my eyes,
I never hoped for what you gave
You weren't meant to stay behind
I wasn't meant to stay away.
If you enjoyed, I'd love to hear about it and I'd love to see you again on later days in this month. Thanks for reading!
