Gone.
Thief is gone again.
Always running around. Never in one place for too long.
I will wait. I always wait for him and he always comes back.
I wish you knew, thief, Doctor, how much I worry about you.
Sometimes you change your face and you act differently, but it's still you.
Like sometimes I change. I change for you.
What if someday you do not return?
What shall I do without my Time Lord?
I wish you would stay with me. No more planets or running around or picking up strays, just us,
Together.
It is impossible, I know.
If you did stop running, you would simply cease to be my Doctor.
And I suppose I would cease to love you the way I do.
I remember when we talked. When I was in that funny little person. Do you remember?
She did not fit me quite right, so it wasn't very nice, except …
I remember talking you to you, and you talking back, touching you, my love.
Some days I wish it could be like that again.
When you have been gone too long.
When you came back to me.
I would open my arms for you, welcome you home then just hold you for long as I could until you must leave me again.
Oh, welcome home, my love, my thief, my Doctor.
Welcome Home.
