Flare & Fade [Doctor Who Poetry]

I Lived

Before I die,

I want to be known

For all I achieved

For the places I went

And things I did.

As a good man,

The Doctor,

Not a killer

Nor murderer.

I want to live

With every breath I take

With every broken bone

With eery new skin

And face I take

I want to live.

So when death

Comes knocking on

Those TARDIS-blue

Doors,

I can smile in his face

And say:

"I lived."
