Day 1 of the “write something daily” Resolution…

So I’ve just finished watching Sherlock series 3 episode 1: The Empty Hearse.
I’ve got a few things to say about it… But no spoilers on here guys! So I’ll just do a crappy poem instead.

In your absence, the nightmares returned.
Afghanistan, war, violence murder
When he was with you, he slept soundly.
Now it’s just worse.

Now he dreams of killing, shooting a man for you.
Of fear, of watching time tick by until the bomb goes off.
Of the look in your eye as believed him to be Moriarty.
Now it’s killing him.

He fears sleep because he watches you fall
Over and over again, just flying towards the ground.
He fears himself, knowing that he can’t save you.
Now he’s dead inside.

Then you show up, not a sign or warning.
He tries to hurt you, to show you the pain you caused him.
He thinks he doesn’t want to walk with you again.
Now he knows he’s wrong.

And he’s alive again.

Happy 2014.
Happy Sherlock Returns.
Shannon.
