"What has Hector ever done to me?"

[patrochilles-txt]

thinking of achilles and patroclus finally meeting in elysium after thetis marks his name on their grave;

achilles jumps at him and presses his nose against his like he used to in their youth. patroclus holds him, and achilles hides his face on his chest and sobs profusely. achilles cries and cries and cries, asking for forgiveness. patroclus just holds him close, reassuringly, "there's nothing to forgive", and how could there be? achilles' love for him was so big that it even made the gods fearful. achilles finally looks at him, with tears in his eyes, he smiled at me, and his face was like the sun.

i just-

[achilles-lyre]

Spring will be here soon. Spring, the season I met you, is coming. A Spring without you…is coming.

[poemsonmars]

i will take what crumbs

of affection i can get

i will feast on them

and pretend that it's enough

to get me through the day

i will ignore the

gnawing in my stomach

the cries for help

the tremors of betrayal

i cannot hear them over the sound

of my name on her lips

and the laughter that follows

i don't want to hear it

i don't want to listen

i would rather have the pain

i would rather have her

"i watched the breeze stir his hair; i watched the sun fall on his golden skin. i leaned back and let it fall on me as well."
