The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things, but vice versa that bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant ~ Vincent and the Doctor
I sit atop my pile of bad things
Reading a book, leisurely
Watching the smoke rise
To swill around the contours
Of the domed ceiling
Plenty of room left to fill
I have watched worlds burn
I have burned worlds.
I have seen the beginning
And the end
And everything in between
There are Daleks in chains
Trails of jelly babies
There is, far below
Cybermen fingers
Scraping violently
Pointlessly
Men with hard eyes
And poisoned souls
People whose glassy gazes
I cannot meet
They died for me
And I will die a thousand times
Drowning in this guilt
I am the Doctor
I have saved the universe
But the universe doesn't care
And it won't save me
