dedicated to midnight_mon for being just asdfghjkl and MunaMir for being an awesome supporter and person in general.

oh achilles, you were a warrior dipped in the river of pain and hate as a babe and yet you were filled with love. so so so much love. so much love that you were never able to give because the man you adored died trying to win a war he couldn't and you both payed the price.

oh achilles, your heart is almost dead and the only thing keeping you going is the lust for victory and the triumph of avenging him. by the blade you would tear piece by piece away his soul, ripping it to pieces and losing yourself within the grief that you rest within.

oh achilles, i'm so sorry for everything. if only that heel of yours wasn't tying you down to humanity you would be able to be the greatest warrior one lay eyes upon. but no. but i think you're happy about that. your small slice humanity was the only thing that allowed you to love him. and you never regretted it. not one bit.

you are achilles
a man         who
loved and loved
no matter what
was       thrown
at               you

you  are  achilles
a warrior who
would  do what
was needed even
if it cost   you
your life

you are achilles
a boy who almost
made it to be
immortal but
was held back
by a heel of humanity

you are           achillesa   boy    who   almostmade it                to beimmortal                butwas       held        backby a heel of humanity
