Poem: The Song of Song.

THE SONG OF SONG

I.
On a lost world of silent shadows
The tides of history touched the Forest of the Dead
When the Lord of Time met an Impossible Astronaut

(for the first time)
(for the last time)


She was River Song
And he read the weight and shape of their story
In her eyes, her touch, her secrets

                                                her sacrifice

He can never save her, but
He can catch her when she falls



II.
Once upon a time there was a girl,
a miracle (a weapon) woven and given shape
by the dreams of the last TARDIS
and the malice of Silence

She was ancient myth made flesh,
the herald of truth and transformation
when the demons ran
and the Doctor fell
- the day everything changed



III.
A bride, she stood unyielding before her groom
untold lives hanging in the balance

(and found wanting
against the life of the one)


as her love stopped time

But the King conceded and the mountains moved,
and all the worlds were reborn from the touch of her lips

(you may kiss the bride)

Oh gosh, I just stumbled upon this at random—it is GORGEOUS… *speechless*
And you dare imply you're not lyrical??? XD

Yes, it is, and poems aren't easy, so… ;)

This was my labour of love.

I had a huge poetry period as a teen… ;) That's the most original work I ever did actually.

Drawing is excellent =) I did a bit of that too, but just idly copying comics characters… Never really gave it any effort… Should have, but oh well.
