Every heart has a Dark side
Part 2
Summary: So the last chapter we read was from Joanna's point of view while the poem was in her father's point of view now it's switched… This is the death sentence to McCoy's happiness and to Joanna's normal Childhood as he is taken from her. "God Damn Wife took the whole Damn Planet in the Divorce all I got left is my bones"
Cold Tears
These are my Cold tears
showing I am sad
these are my silent fears
of all the things that's bad
He used to hold me tight
protect me from the storm
he used to kiss me goodnight
Daddy always kept me warm
I wake up in reality
to this lonely place
you took my daddy from me
and you sent him off to space!
For life is now very gruff
you I can never forgive
when I am old enough
somewhere else I will live!
I will follow in his way
I will bring him joy
for I will find him again someday
I am and always will be a McCoy
These are my cold tears
showing I am sad
these are my silent fears
of all the things that's bad
Leonard had tried everything but the judge was on her side. "Court rules that full custody of Joanna McCoy is in favor of her mother, Leonard you will be able to see her on your Shore leaves and holidays on earth only" the judge said pounding down the gavel it was the death sentence his death sentence. Joanna Ran from her mother's grasp and clutched her father's long grey pant legs Crying her eyes out in fear. "Leonard I'm giving five minutes with her! Then she's coming with me" Jocelyn snapped as she walk out of the courtroom.
"Daddy don't leave me please don't leave me" She cried into his shoulder as he held her. "I can't Darlin I have to leave you physically but Jo-Jo Be strong your my little girl and my little southern bell I'll always be in your heart and you'll be able to see me again I promise" Leonard said almost in tears himself has his kisses his young daughter on the cheek then he saw Jocelyn and had to let his girl go. Joanna would have to go alone without her dad for some time but she never blamed him.
Now Leonard sat here in the ship yard in Atlanta looking through the fog to see a starship being born. "Nothing but a tin can that's for sure" He slurred as he sat on the bench by the gate. McCoy hadn't slept for three days now he was a pale as a ghost. He soon felt a hand on his right shoulder Looking up he saw a man in a Starfleet uniform an ashes gray Starfleet uniform. "Who…Who aarree you?" McCoy slurred half drunk. "I'm Captain Pike Leonard I know of your work at the hospital you used to work at, they had requested you join us at Starfleet" He said sitting next to the sad lonely doctor. "Why in the hell did they do that for?" McCoy asked more clearly this time. "Because son they believe you have the potential of being something more than ya are you'll have a new life up on a starship just like that one" Pike said pointing to the ship that was being built before them both. "Well I guess it beats sitting here and moping in misery" McCoy whispered. "Well if you're interested son meet me in the shuttle bay near down town Atlanta in three hours and I can get ya to the cadet Shuttle for the academy" Pike said leaving McCoy to sit and think about it. Life may never be the same but hell it was about to hopefully get a lot better.
