Life's a Song
sitting in the chair
listening to the music he played
felt relaxed; at home
the violin continued its sad song
he plucked on the strings
finishing his little tune
knowing that it might be his last
and looked out the window at the reality he must face
but after all, it was better than losing his only friends
standing on the top of a building
he had no other choice
he called who he loved most
and said
"I'm up here, John"
"no.. what are you doing up there?"
"It's what people do, isn't it? Leave a message...
I'm a fake, John... no one could be that clever"
"you could"
and with that he said goodbye to the one he loved, threw his phone to the side
and jumped
not sure if he'll ever see him again
"Sherlock!"
running across the street, he wasn't sure if what he'd just seen was true
he saw him fall
with a red pool of blood around him
"Please.. He's my friend! Let me through"
it was all very surreal
"You told me once that you weren’t a hero…
um.. there were times I didn’t even think you were human,
but, let me tell you this: you were the best man and human…
human being I’ve ever known,
and no-one will ever convince me that you told me a lie,
that’s… uh. There.
I was so alone, and I owe you so much.
Look, please, there’s just one more thing,
one more thing, one more miracle, Sherlock, for me.
Don’t. Be. Dead.
Would you do that, just for me, just… stop it. Stop this!"
(-John Watson)
finding it unbearable to move back into the flat
he found a different place to live
where he wouldn't have to remember all the good memories of his love
he went back to the way he was before he met him
not eating, depressed, drinking, unshaven
it all seemed rather pointless
sitting at the bar one night
drinking but not tasting
when something catches his eye
out of the street
but he's not sure if what he's seeing could really be true
he's not sure of anything anymore
after all it has been three years
nearly knocking his chair over
he ran outside
to hopefully meet the blue eyes he remembered for what seems so long ago
too long ago...
wondering if its a dream
of if he's drank too much
he walked up to him
and knew it was real
"I'm back, John"
