#when the iliad and lore olympus destroys apollo to you
they say we die twice.
the first is when our bodies decay
and rot after being hammered down
by the adversaries of the earth—
the first is when hector drove his spear
into your flesh,
tearing through the skin i remembered
countlessly caressing
and ripping you to your end.
the last is when our names are said for the final time
then the world would tumble and turn
and forget of our existences—
so let me be the person who will
never forget to say your name.
you were taken from me too soon,
too fast;
my heart remains shattered as though
a taut spear that has been snapped.
so let me be the one
who will say your name
until the world will never forget who you are;
until even apollo feels the guilt of having
taken you from me;
until all i am is you.
- your name means more than i love you’s.
