221B

A tall, lean, mysterious man

Very sharp cheekbones and beautiful curly, black hair

Rude with comments of his high intelligence to those that are less than

Passionately plays violin and composes with care

An arch enemy, convinced the world he is a fraud

Only three friends, all will die, unless he sacrifices his life for his enemy's story

Carefully stepping onto the ledge, heart pounding as death cawed

Waiting down below, a horrified witness to the end of his glory

For two long years, they mourned, wishing for one last miracle, "Don't be dead."

And back again, in masquerade, waiting to see the joy and surprise

Confused as anger rushed over those left behind, a punch did swing, harsh words were said

Feelings changed, happy to see each other again, behind them his demise

I have talked and talked and talked

Much to the dismay of my friends, I am SHERLOCKED.
