Life Viewed Through an Amber Focus

hungrytiger11 wanted the War Doctor and the Rose shaped character and the prompt was future. It kind of turned into a poem, but still qualifies as a drabble at 100 words.

This is how the Storm arises
When the Wolf is at the door
She is more than just a woman
Or a girl that wanted more

She’s the Moment for his taking
Rattling him down to the core
With her golden eyes revealing
He doesn’t have to fight this war

He’s a soldier with one future
Limited by time and place
A warrior built for fighting
Not a man that’s granted grace

He’s not one that’s meant for peace
He gave up that comely face
Still he takes the chance she offers
To save his home, his hearts, his race.
