Roses are red
His scarf was blue
If he doesn't turn up soon
I might have to jump, too

Roses are red
My favorite scarf is blue.
Just wait a little longer, John
I'm coming back for you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not very much longer to stand on this wall.
Only a moment to make one more call.
Do it to save him; do it for John.
Step out into space, feel the wind, then you're gone.
A lone Army Doctor stood by a grave.
Cried for the friend he'd have died just to save.
Reached out his fingers for one final touch.
"I was so alone, and I owe you so much."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On a ledge so tall one could touch the clouds,
Forced to fall, from above, force to hit the ground.
For to fly into concrete is to fly none the less,
into death,
Away from life,
Into heaven,
Away from hell.
But do not fret for I do not sleep,
I faked my encounter with the Grim's reap.
Goodbye Watson but I'm not forever gone,
For I'm still in this world and I still need you John.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Doctor Watson
I'm not a hero
I'm not even a good man
I just play the violin, refusing
speech for days on end.
I'm an addict without
a fix, waiting to
explode,
desperately in need
of my next high note.
I don't have friends, Doctor Watson
I'm just a lonely man
who'd rather solve a case
with you than
fake who I am.
I'm a human, in faith,
despite what I've said
I don't have friends
Doctor Watson
(I have you instead)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Moriarty sat on a wall
Sherlock Holmes had a great fall
All Lestrade's horses
and all of Mycroft's men
Couldn't put Watson together again.
