Achilles and Patroklos
I have feared this time would come,
for like the wind you have swooped in and taken my heart.
I feared its capture, though it has not been enslaved by you, but set free,
free of wrath and replaced by hope.
Even death’s cold departure could never steal the gifts that you have given me,
for I am left forever changed by you.
-Achilles’ love professed to Patroklos
