Achilles Come Down
“I can’t stand seeing you tear yourself apart like this.” He pleaded, eyes filled with months worth of sadness, anger , confusion.
“Then don’t watch. Simple.” The other boy spoke softly, but firmly, determined on pushing everyone who cared about him, away.
“You may feel no purpose , nor a point for existence, it’s all just conjecture and gloom. There may not be meaning , so find one and seize it.” Patroclus begged , with all that was left of him, with all the love that’s grown only stronger, since the day they’ve met.
“I’m doing this. I’m gonna jump. You can’t stop me.” Achilles couldn’t bring himself to sound composed. Yelling in desperation, he prayed to the Gods that he’d drop it and go home.
“So jump, and i’m jumping.” Giving up, he took a step forward as if his other half were a ticking bomb, which in a way, he was.
“Why?” At the edge of the roof, he was in utter turmoil.
“... because there is no me without you.” Patroclus confessed.
