This poem is very highly based on Moon 71's [ At FF.Net .. ] story!! I loved it so much that I tried [ Obviously not with much success ... ^^; Seeing how it's so horrid .. ] to write a poem on it!!

<3 ya Moon 71!! Your a LIFE SAVOR!!! ^_^ 

________________________________________________________________

I lay here staring,

Breathing in the thought of you.

I inhale,

For you are my berath,

My life.

Without you, my world is no more.

I glance at your face,

Lost inside of a familar memory,

Knowing all too well that you are there no more.

I killed you.

With a cold shoulder,

My own neglecting Pride;

I killed you.

You gave me so many, many signs

Of your ill health.

Your sad eyes,

A final cry out for my love.

Your icy hands,

Frozen in time,

While the rest of you boiled alive.

I hurt you,

When I should have loved you,

And tended to your wounds.

Even when you reached out to me,

I just pushed you away.

'It was only the wine speaking,' I tell myself,

'Far too drunk to notice the sudden change in you.'

But that's a lie,

An excuse,

For what I've done to you.

I was angry,

Angry at myself.

Not at you.

Never at you.

I love you far too much for that.

And I cant live without you.

You are my Patroklos;

And I your Achilles.

I exhale,

Letting my final breath slip away

As your eyes grow dull....

And I am no more....

o_O   Ye-ah ... This poem had started out as a poem for a guy that I like. Then, sadly, I wrote 'I killed you' down and ... It seemed to fit better if I left it there and .. Then, my mind wandered off to Moon 71's Ale and Tion story!! [ Aka, Alexander and Hephaestion .. (( ^^; Please note that if and when I EVER have a son .. I'm naming him Hephaestion!!! I'm in love with the name!! It's so ... pretty! )) ] And .. WAH-LA!!

^^; And that, my non-existent readers, is how this insult to the orginal author's work came to be ...

-shurgs-  So you all know, this is only the roughest copy of it .. I'll be working on it but ... I just wanted to share it with no one in general!

Feel more then free to criticize this!! I alway love the help!!

Of course, as always, I may repost this when it's better .. Or I may not .. -shurgs-  Whatever I do, I do ..

Ja!
