This poem is an original and is About the book "The Song Of Achilles" by Madeline Miller
If you don't know or haven't read the novel:
The novel is about the love of two guys . One was a prince..the prince of Phthia , half-god and is the Greatest of the Greeks whose destiny was to defeat the greatest of the Trojans.. His name , was Achilles.
The other , was also a prince . A prince who was exiled over a crime he unintentionally committed. He was exiled to Phthia and he met Achilles.
The two eventually fell for each other, despite the disapproval and Achilles mother. A sea nymph aka a sea goddess.
When the Trojan war was approaching Patroclus joined Achilles in the ten year long war . The year was long and tough , many deaths and hard times .
Patroclus wasn't really acknowledged and was just seen as someone under Achilles. Which is why I specifically wrote my poem about Patroclus and the courage he showed , though it did have a cost , it is still very admirable and it definitely impacted me. (Made me cry)

Tides Of Ithaca
An Epic Love Between a Demigod and a Prince, Forged by Fate and Saltwater When Y/N Jackson-Percy Jackson's younger, storm-stubborn sister-is caught in a mysterious tempest on her solo quest, she wakes up not in Camp Half-Blood... but in a palace by the sea. Specifically: the royal palace of Ithaca. Telemachus, newly crowned prince and veteran of wars no boy should've had to fight, finds her unconscious on the shore and carries her to safety. He expects a castaway. He doesn't expect a girl who spars like a soldier, argues like a queen, and looks at him like she sees right through the armor. Y/N falls first-but Telemachus falls harder. With Percy crashing in to "rescue" her (and totally losing a sword duel to the prince), Poseidon hurling disapproval like thunderbolts, and Odysseus giving the worst father-in-law advice in history, Y/N finds herself tangled in a love story as wild and dangerous as the sea. There are stolen kisses in moonlit corridors. Jealous gods. Touch-starved tension. Teasing brothers. And a wedding that will make Olympus itself shake. But the biggest twist? Sometimes the real adventure begins after the "happily ever after." ⸻ A romantic mythological fantasy filled with slow-burn tension, laugh-out-loud banter, and a surprise ending you won't see coming-Tides of Ithaca is perfect for fans of EPIC: The Musical and Percy Jackson who want their mythos with a splash of swoon.Complete

Indigo Eyes
I could give you a sob story about how tough Cressida Lynn's life has been, but you're not here for that. You're not here to hear about how terrible her mother treated her and how she only got her first birthday present at age nine or how no one outside her cabin liked her. No. You're here to hear about how her life changed the summer of her 12th birthday. The summer when Poseidon's son came crashing through the camp borders after he'd killed the Minotaur. You're here to hear about how they found the Lightning Thief. You're here to hear about how they ventured through the Sea of Monsters. You're here to hear about how they withstood the Titan's Curse. You're here to hear about how they fought in the Battle of the Labyrinth. You're here to hear about how they defended the Last Olympian. However, I must warn you that this journey is not for the faint-hearted for each quest is more treacherous than the last. And it is most certainly not for mortals. But, should you find yourself feeling brave, should you be a demigod in a past life, a present life or a future one, then I invite you to join me on this adventure. #1 in hades #1 in greekgodsandgoddesses #1 in lukecastellan #1 in titanwar #1 in dionysus #1 in pjofandom #4 in zeus #4 in seaofmonsters #9 in kronos #10 in labyrinth #12 in percyjacksonandtheolympians #17 in greekmythology #23 in annabethchase #36 in poseidon (Lightning Thief - Last Olympian) (Disclaimer: All rights go to the legendary Rick Riordan, I only own Cressida and any original scenes and dialogue I've written.)

The Aeneid By Virgil Written 19 B.C.E
The Aeneid is an epic poem written in 12 books and is modeled in part on the great Greek epic poems, on Homer's Iliadand Odyssey, and on Apollonius' Argonautica. The Iliad describes the exploits of Achilles and other Greek heroes in the Trojan War (the same war which forced Aeneas to leave Troy and is described in Book II of the Aeneid) whilst the Odyssey describes how Ulysses (or Odysseus in Greek) wandered for many years, trying to return home after the Trojan War. The first six books of the Aeneid parallel the Odyssey because they describe Aeneas' search for a home. Aeneas even stops in many of the same places that Odysseus did. There is an important difference, however, for whilst Odysseus was trying to return to his original home, Aeneas must find a new place in which to settle and make his home. The second six books parallel the Iliad, for they describe the war in Italy just as the Iliad describes the Trojan War. Again, there are many parallels. For example, the Trojans are besieged inside their fort in Italy just as they were trapped inside Troy. But again there is an important difference, since the Iliad describes how the Trojans lost the war and Troy fell but in theAeneid the Trojans win the war in Italy and get the chance to build a new city. Virgil imitates many scenes from both the Iliad and the Odyssey in his epic, but he always changes them in significant ways so that they illustrate his own Roman themes. One of the most important differences between Homer's epics and the Aeneid is that it can be read as a patriotic poem whilst the Iliad and the Odyssey are poems about individuals and their adventures.Complete

deja vu: a silena beauregard story
Ever since Silena Beauregard was a child, she would have strange, almost prophetic-like dreams about a handsome, golden-haired prince from Phthia. But unlike every other demigod, her dreams aren't trying to warn her about imminent death; they're just dreams. If anything, their only use seems to be giving her poorly-timed deja vu. And they only continue to get worse the older she gets. At age sixteen, Silena comes to a terrifying realization: her dreams are a double-edged sword, and they come with a cost she's not entirely sure she can afford. Will the visions of her golden-haired prince's death in the Trojan War save her or lead her to her own demise? Or: What if Silena was really just the reincarnation of Patroclus?Complete
