We walk this earth to see the sky,but there are no stars out here tonight.I can’t deny—that’s such a shame,as I watch him fight this change. The light once burning in his eyes flickers soft, then slowly dies. The face will go, the body too, but not the mind; it stays true. It’s always him, though form may change, a different smile, a voice rearranged. He’s done this dance time after time. Now thirteen comes along the line. The writing lingers on the wall as he takes his final bow. A quiet testament in fading ink, to all that was, and won’t be now. The audience exhales, and the lights grow dim. This is not the first,nor will it be the last. From old into new, time moves untold its lords unseen, yet never erased. Same soul, but a different face. A fresh regeneration takes its place. Ready to travel through shifting time, and then return to familiar places. We blink once more—just like before, and everything’s new, yet somehow the same at the core. Now marked by number thirteen.

From 12 to 13
by Elizabeth Hensley To the tune of Around her Neck. Around her neck she wore a very long scarf! She wore it in the springtime and in the month of May, And if you asked her why the heck she wore it, She wore it for a Time Lord Who was very far away! Far away! Far away! She wore it for a Time Lord who was very far away! On her side she wears a shiny new gun. She wears it in the springtime and in the month of May! And if you asked her, "Why the heck she wears it?" She wears it for a Brigadier Who is very Far away! Far away! Far away! She wore it for a Brigadier Who was very far away! On her shirt she wears a golden star She wears it in the springtime and in the month of May And if you asked her, "Why the heck she wears it?" She wears it for Adric who is very far away! Far away! Far away! She wears it for Adric who is very far away! At her feet there sits a Metal Doggie. He sits there in the Springtime and in the month of May. And if you asked him "why the heck he sits there?" He sits there for our Savage who is very far away. Far away! Far away! He sits there for Our Savage who is very far away!

AROUND HER NECK A Fannish Filk Song
LOTS OF DALEKS Words by by Jeffery Kellog and Elizabeth Hensley (To the tune of the Doctor Pepper Jingle). Here's a Dalek! There's a Dalek! (WHERE'S THE TARDIS!?) Wouldn't you hate to be the Doctor now! We watch Doctor Who and we're proud We're part of a pixelated crowd Other hero's fight and blast But the Doctor uses violence last Wouldn't the worlds be nicer if we'd all?

LOTS OF DALEKS!
Words by Elizabeth Hensley (To the tune of, "West Texas Town of El Paso.") One day while the Enterprise sailed Cross the galaxy Looking for worlds where thinking resides, They came cross an Alien with eyes blue as Earth’s skies And love in his hearts a whole galaxy wide! Oh give me these wild velvet skies! You can let planets go hang! This is the way to be So completely free. Doctor and Enterprise know how to live! Wild is the winds of Antares and Rigel! Traveling the worlds in a box colored blue! Long scarf and Tin Dog and coat full of candy! He was the gentlest Being that They knew! Oh give me these wild velvet skies! You can let planets go hang! This is the way to be So completely free. Doctor and Enterprise know how to live! The Vulcan was intrigued to find such a time ship Shaped like a police box all peeling and blue! Bigger inside than it is on the outside. Beyond any tech that the Federation knew! The Time-Lord was happy to find a big Star ship Full of Beings as kind as himself Shaped like a Peace Dove, So shining and pretty: A ship full of tall Imps and one stoic Elf! Oh give me these wild velvet skies! You can let planets go hang! This is the way to be So completely free. Doctor and Enterprise know how to live!

The Doctor and the Enterprise A Fannish Filk Song
Frozen Chaotic thoughts of Yesterday's sins Discerning voices telling me .... To let you go.... Through hell I will go Through hell I will climb To keep you safe To keep you mine "Run you clever boy" Is what you tell me All I want is to run Straight back to you Frozen in time Frozen in my fears The bad wolf is coming The ravens wings embrace "Run you clever boy" Your final words Your final goodbye I never wanted to let you go My girl frozen in time.

I wait for this weird blue box to land on my yard, piloted by an alien who invites me to travel far because I feel so lonely and depressed on Earth that I make dreams out of my scars

would you like to be my companion?
I have a **** blue friend She is so old, yet so young Time is an ocean, and she A mighty ship that sails it Ah, the voyages through time And space, that is a must With her, I will see the true forms Of the majestic dinosaurs She will introduce me To past philosophers and scholars Ancient thinkers and teachers I can ask questions Learn and confirm Settle debates and mystery But keeping them only to myself But my sweet ridiculous friend She will not take me to the future No, she says she wants to follow me into mine So I ask "So there is a future then?" For me, for us, for all of us? So she says: "To show you a future now, Is to steal away all the infinite potential, Your stories is yours Only you can make it a good one. But I will be there, and here, With you I may not take you where you want to go But, let us do our best, So together, We may go where we need to go" And then, without warning, My blue brilliant friend, Whisks me away Because she wants to show me An apple falling onto someone's head

The Time and The ****
Tick tock around it goes, the clock shall soon strike twelve and the one I knew for oh so long will be but a passing dream. His face will change, his body too but not his mind or soul. He’ll fight to stay, but burns so bright that in the end he’ll have to go. This is not the first time, and will not be the last, but new memories will form and my time with him shall soon be ancient past. We fought, we lived, we learned, we loved, we walked among the stars, but in the end one life can never be enough for the man who lives a life so different from ours. He’ll soon move on, and start anew he’ll leave us all behind. Searching every face, day in, day out we put trust in all his lies, and wait forever for someone who’ll never come back. Tick tock around it goes, the clock shall soon strike twelve, and once again he is no more, replaced by someone new.

Clara Who Clerihew
I'm skin and bones I'm forever and always. I'm always watching stars collide. You're lost and confused. You're alone and temporary. You're just sitting there watching stars collide. Washed up in the creek I watch as you count sheep until you fall asleep. You were always cold and wondering, but then I pulled you from the creek and dressed you up in new clothes. What the hell is going on? You told me that you couldn't see straight anymore. You're holding on to me, an unfamiliar figure. I'll tell you my name and whisk you away to a safe place, away from the darkness, you were left in. My story was written in the stars. I'm ancient and forever. While your story was like tree rings. At one point it will come to an end, but I loved you. I'll always treat you like you're important. I'll look at you like you're the first face that I have ever seen. I told you you weren't allowed to love me. You told me you couldn't just forget me. You couldn't just walk away from it all. I told you I would be the end of you one day and you were going to be the end of me. The world was built for two, but I just can't love you. Knowing one day I'll be seeing you slipping from this world and I'll just stand over your deathbed knowing there is nothing I can do. So all I'm going to do is love you anyway with all I have and leave before it gets worse.

For My Future Companion
With sand sinking quickly, It’s dragging me down and there’s no way of saving me. You stand and watch me drown in my own river, for now, I’m just a skeleton in your closet. Words of regret you feed me, But I throw them into the stream because the adventure was so much sweeter. I told you to just leave me in a pit and wait for the earth to cover me up. If you so greedily wish to see me again just dig me up. When I ask to throw me into the sea you were scared of the waves I was to create. I told you not to worry because if you want to see me again just dive down below. This life is all I want to remember. I don’t want to live a future. You told me if I died you’ll never grow me flowers or cry for my pain. So I stopped and lived another day for you. And you told me you have been on the run for decades but never knew why. So since you know you must keep moving you kissed me in every language you knew, As our hands parted like passing ships.

Doomsday
Shadow man, an unusual human being without a name. You called me one night out of the blue and asked me to run away with you. I was baffled, but as night turned into day we both jumped in your boat and sailed away. You told me about the lonesome life you live and how you've sailed these seas for many years and was in search of a hand to hold. You told me that I was the most beautiful flower there was. Your world was without a sky and you told me I am the calm of the storm, and that I should stick around for awhile. You showed me all the constellations and all at once I was lost in space. I closed my eyes and smelled the sea salt and felt the ship shake smoothly over these waves. I laid here with you. We landed on many civilized city's ports and explored for more. We'd have lunch in the woods, see movies, and explore the inside of museums. Breathe it in because there will come an end. You told me I wasn't the first you ran away with. There have been others but in the end they always broke your heart. You cried to me on the nights memories found their way back into your mind and knew that one day I'll be the one causing tears when my time ends. If I leave don't worry, don't weep dry your eyes so you can see light and notice that I'll be in the stars. I'll be trapped in time. Just sail on and find the edge of the ocean and become friends with the moon, and stars above, before the curtain falls.

Shadow Man
I sail alone because the sea now holds my lover's bones. Some nights I see parts of her red dress floating by in distance. Death was always engraved on her skin since the day I said hello. Over the waves, isolation is my only company. I age with the sea, I am a constant pattern of madness. Only at night do I dance for the midnight stars. The moon was my partner, the only one I couldn't destroy. I lead, the moon followed, with her dress of waves that flowed gracefully around my ship. We don't dance for long as I fear one day I'll be the end of her. The clouds were beautiful. A home I crave away from these grounds. A place that's far from a soul I could damage. I pledged, I would never love a person again, or get to attached to them. I wish to be far away from earth, I want to be up with the thunder. Distant from where all my past lovers are six feet under.

Someone call the Doctor, because something’s amiss. The darkness descended, and there’s just the abyss. Tell him, that maybe, a paradox formed. That up, is now right, and that demons have swarmed. Tell him, please tell him, that we need the blue box. We need his courage, to turn back the clock. I know the moment, the exact time it went wrong, but I can’t do it alone, I’ve done that too long. If we just had the Doctor, we could set things to right. We could change that moment, and bring back the light. I know he’s not coming, and that he’s not real. It’s just wishful writing, to push back my fears. A hero, a savior, someone who knows all. Someone who isn’t me, that could stop the slow fall. A blue box, a Doctor, a moment in time. A villain, so empty, writing silly rhymes. A paradox, truly, that doesn’t make sense. Can a villain turn hero, if he shows recompense? I guess we shall see, but I won’t hold my breath. I’ll wait for the Doctor, or I’ll just wait for Death.

To Dance
The clock is ticking—Listen A fadded voice pleas "Everything ends" A burning sun must soon descend The night is a shining sea The clock is ticking—Listen An old fluttering leaf ascends Dried and broken as can be Everything ends Withered hearts can't mend Oh, the loses they have seen! The clock's tick is slowing—Listen Melancholy ticks grow distant A dreaded time is nearing Everything ends Oh, the inevitable end They live, they die, they bleed The clock has stopped—Listen Everything ends

Everything Ends
You have a heart made of beautiful gold and a soul of stardust that'll never grow old. There are sweet galaxies within your eyes and your scars are constellations better than the sky's. You're a walking universe so wonderful and sublime; someone who'll remain important across all space and time.

Doomsday
I am from Home. I am from hot baths in the summer and winter alike. I am from a silver ring decked with a ruby. I am from laughing faces and weeping hearts. From Pilaf and Tabuleh. From the lonely, and the love. I am from music loud in my ears so I don't have to listen to anyone. I am from late-night arguments and early-morning apologies. I am from cousins and children Staying in my home despite Their heritage. I am from Untitled Documents. I am from Marisa and Ben. My namesake and her lover. I am from hand-washing dishes. From Mrs. Laird and Mrs. Tans. From Eagle Crest. I am from Volleyball. From late practices And broken limbs. I am from the world. From crushing decisions that don't matter. From school-induced insomnia. I am from the wind In my hair. Stars above my head. Children in my classroom. I am from England-so far away, and yet so near. I am from Doctor Who and Sherlock. My inspirations. I am from Sobahn. My friend I have never seen. I am from swinging into the lake from a tire swing and a zip-line. Dogs. Stray cats. Army games. I am from fake battles and singing hymns in the shade of the hot summer day. I am from Christian and Kira. From red paint on the pavement-lying to me, telling me it is blood. I am from my childhood. I wish I could go back there. I am from home.

I Am From Home
Guess what day is soon to be Where smiling people is all I see Feeling like they belong with someone While I wait for whoever will come. Guess the day that shall be upon us When dates and love will be all they discuss While I stand awkwardly to the side Telling myself it was okay, I'd tried. Guess the day I wish to come When I stand in front of him, struck dumb Shocked that my offer to watch Doctor Who Would have finally appealed to him, out of the blue. Guess the day I most abhor It aids in my internal war As I wait for time to pass I remind myself he's not the last.

I'm afraid of weeping angle statues Dark library's People who repeat what I say Broken clocks Cracks in my wall Time crashes Children in gas masks asking for their "mummy" GPS systems Fat people in the government Fish from space Planet in the sky Snowmen and any thing else which lies in the dark

Afraid
'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse Little Amelia Pond asleep in her bed, with thoughts of a raggedy doctor floating through her head. Outside her window, there came a bright light, 'twas a light so bright that it lit up the night And the sound of the TARDIS woke her up with a jolt and with an excited smile she heard the thing halt She ran through the house, past the mouse, past the tree and she saw her old friend and greeted him with glee. He was happy to see her, but there was sadness in his heart. He brought her rare gifts, like VanGogh art. They ate fishsticks and custard as the doctor told of tales never heard. As the night went on the fun wore out little miss pond The doctor tucked her into bed and told her more stories that danced through her head. 'Twas the morning of christmas and the best gift of all was the night full of memories and for years she recalled her raggedy doctor until they met once more But thats a story for another time, and then I shall write more. Have a merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday From The Doctor And Amy

Amy's Night Before Christmas
I have lived many lives, and have seen exotic places. New people join me on my adventures, but they all leave and are replaced. I haven’t been there in awhile, mostly because it’s gone. Atleast i thought it was, but hope has been struck like lightning. A minute there, then gone,warned me that something is coming. An oncoming storm, coming fast, and unyielding. I will get there soon, stay where you are, don’t move.
