Who
is Thomas Eugene Paris? A screw-up...a clown...a hero...a
fool...? Tom Paris was 'the brightest light which burned too soon in vain'. He had everything and his future was bright. But he stumbled, he made a mistake and then another...and another...and another...until his light had dimmed and his future had withered. And he was alone. Then he
found himself on the Starship Voyager...he was given
another I
like Tom Paris because he is flawed and yet he's still a
hero. Unlike the "The world breaks everyone.
Some are strong at the broken places." |

you can
have my heart
but it isn't new
it's been used and broken and only comes in blue
"I'm not exactly a good luck charm."
it's been down a long raod
and it got dirty on the way
if i give it to you
will you make it clean?
wash the pain away...
"No matter where I go or who I'm with...I make a mess of things."
you can have my heart
if you don't mind broken things
"There
might actually be one or two people who still have a good opinion
of me"
you can have my heart if you don't mind
these tears
but i heard that you make all things new
so i give these pieces all to you
if you want it you can have my heart
"I
don't need anyone to choose my friends for me."
-Harry
"I overlooked his bravery because I was focusing on his
brashness. I ignored his courage
bcause I saw it as arrogance. And I resented his friendliness
because I mistook it for
licentiusness. So while this man was giving us his best, every
minute of every day, I was
busy judging him."
-Neelix
"I love you."
-B'Elanna
so beyond repair
nothing i could do
tried to fix it myself but it was only worse when i got thru
"I
didn't tell the truth. I made a mistake - which happens to people
- but if I'd admitted
that mistake it would have been a lot better. But I lied about
it. And it nearly ruined my life."
then you walk right into my darkness
and you speak words so sweet
you hold me like a child till my frozen tears fall at your feet
"I'm
starting to realize that it's not other people's opinions I
should be worried
about...it's mine."
you can have my heart
if you don't mind broken things
"We all have a past. What matters is now."
you can
have my heart if you don't mind these tears
but i heard that you make all things new
so i give these pieces all to you
if you want it you can have my heart
"All
this running around you do...your 'mission'. You're so dedicated,
you know?
Like you care about something more than just your own little
life."
-Rain Robinson
