A Doctor's Regret
a fan-poem by Shiny Marble
I cannot undo that I have done,
It cannot be forgiven.
All have lost because I won,
Please let it lay forgotten.
I cheated death so many times,
And others got my share.
I confess to all these crimes,
And warn others to beware.
I know I'll pay for all these things,
P'raps I am already.
None know what tomorrow brings,
I may become unsteady.
I'm lying, dying, on this floor,
Is that a real flame?
I feel broken to the core,
At least I hid my name.
A/N: This is my fan-poem of the eighth Doctor's thoughts just before he regenerated into the ninth Doctor. It was just after the Time War, after all.
