Moth

Title: Moth
Character(s): Ten.
Pairing: My usual.
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Not mine
Spoilers: Canon compliant, so spoilers for 4X13
Summary: And all the words I have not said

I hope that Time
Will ease that pain
Which comes whene’er
I think your name.

We’re not supposed
To end this way.
There’s still so much
I want to say.

My moth still burns
To find your flame.
To know I can’t
Brings searing pain.

And all the words
I have not said
Go ’round and ’round
Inside my head.

I know that I’ve
Myself to blame.
But it still hurts
To breathe your name.

I didn’t say them,
But they’re true.
And all this time,
I thought you knew.

I'm glad I waited until I was less raw to read this. It would have killed me a week or more ago. It's lovely. If I made banners I'd use some of your text for it :)

This is an updated version of Once Burnt, Twice Shy (http://lived-in-hope.livejournal.com/12902.html), and an attempt to get into the Doctor’s head immediately post-Journey’s End. It hurts.

Glad you like it, though. This one’s kinda special.

Ha! Nice to know I'm consistent....I loved the Moth Imagery before!

Yeah, I remember :)

(It’s quite evident in this year’s season finale that that is how he is, bless him.)
