Nerdfighters

Hi Nerdfighters.

I was sorting through a couple of my old doctuments the other day, and I found this poem I wrote about Bones and Booth, after watching that episode where they break up. The first time. After Booth's brain tumor thing, where he has that vision of him and Bones as husband and wife, you know atI'm talking about... right?

Right before he meets Hannah?

I was SO angry at that episode that the only way i could calm down was to write a poem, (see me in Writer Nerdfighters)

So anyway, since I have no real life friends who like Bones, I thought I'd share it with you all.

The main thing that inspired this poem was this very line:

"I'm a scientist. I can't change"

- Temperance Brennan (Bones)

 

So... I hope you like it :)

Scientist

A poem inspired by the TV show Bones

 

 

 

When it precipitates

We may osculate

But what I’m feeling is just hormones

When it’s night or day

My thoughts wander away

I can’t be thinking about you all day

 

I chose textbooks over fairy tales so long ago

My laboratory is like my second home

I just feel the most at peace

When I’m here with my bones

Can’t you see that I’m working?

Can’t you leave me alone?

 

Whether we’re at the diner or the bar

My mind just wanders away so far

I can’t focus on this, on us

Because it’s all just happening in a rush

 

I am a scientist

I can’t change

I am a scientist

Sorry if you find that strange

 

Maybe we could try again

Someday, I’ll be ready

Maybe one day this rocky road

Will finally be steady

 

Yes, maybe someday

But for now I insist

I can’t

Because

I am a scientist

 

Abandoned, as a child

I guess it was my only hope

Science never let me down

Unlike some other people I know

 

And now the O2 level in the room has seemed to drop

My respiratory system is failing

I look into those irises of yours

And I don’t know what I’m saying

 

Now I’ve gone and let you go

Perhaps, my biggest regret

How hurt you looked when I let you go

Perhaps, I will never forget

 

I want to stay friends

I want to make amends

I don’t want to forget you just yet

I hope you understand

The very thing I can’t seem to comprehend

 

 I am a scientist

I can’t change

I am a scientist

Sorry if you find that strange

 

Maybe we could try again

Someday, I’ll be ready

Maybe one day this rocky road

Will finally be steady

 

Yes, maybe someday

But for now I insist

I can’t

Because

I am a scientist

 

I think this is all because we were moving too fast

I need to get my thoughts sorted out

Organize my emotions, until I know

What this “love” is all about

 

But when I discover the truth

It’s already too late

You moved on and so should I

But I can’t just yet

I can’t forget

I guess that you’d say that it’s fate

 

But I don’t know what that means

I don’t believe in it at all

Maybe it’s not as it seems

But it’s too late to pick up the phone and call

But maybe, after all, I can change.

 

I am just a scientist

Conclusion: love is strange

I'll take critisism, Nerdfighters!

If you liked it, tell me. If you hated it tell me. I'm always open for improvement!

I loved it! It truely captured all of her emotions back then, its an awesome poem.

Thanks!

I liked it but it doesn't seem very much like Dr Brennan, it's too emotional for Brennan

Yeah. True. But I don't think she's a very poem-y sort of person, so I doubt real poem could capture her.

Oh well, I tried.
