A/N:Sorry for not updating these in a while. I'll have a few more up shortly. This one isn't all that I tried.

It's from Addison's perspective-I felt like I needed to right one of those. Basically, it's her thoughts upon leaving Derek, Seattle and everything there. Not that I whole heartedly agree with the way it would play out if things went that way but...anyway...enjoy!

Picking my suitcase off the bed, I take a look around. What was I thinking coming here?The second I stepped foot in the hospital I knew I didn't belong. But I stayed anyway. I pull my wedding ring off, placing it on the table. It rests atop the papers-at long last signed. Maybe I can find my life-without Derek.

"Leaving Seattle"

A single tear slides down my cheek.

I'm going away-you'd think I'd feel weak.

I know what I'm doing-

I know that it's right.

Pretending got me nowhere,

I can't live like this anymore.

I deserve better...

Why should he care?

By the time he gets back-

I won't even be here.

He could choose to follow me...

but then she'd be in tears.

I should have known better.

I should have listened to my heart.

So I'm taking my chance.

I'm ending this battle-

I'm leaving Seattle.

A/N:I want to thank everyone who's reviewed so far. I can't say which one of my favorite yet. I'm not sure who I'll write from/about next...if you have any ideas-let me know.

Also-kinda OT-but I had a few messages asking me about the "Unspoken" poem. Glad you liked it. I'm on TI (The Incision)-But does anyone have the link to the Burke/Cristina More than Coffee board?I've looked and can't find it anywhere. Anyway-thanks for the help...I'll have another one up today, if not tomorrow.
