Never Meant to be His

Never meant to say 

Achilles, Achilles come down

Rendition of Aphrodite's daughter 

Trojan war it's name, 

Beauty of the golden Helen or

Temptation of man, it's muse?

Along it's lines, written another tale

Brothers, best friends, buddies neither were they

Tale this of Achilles and Patroclus

One of the golden bow, other of the fierce sword

Ahead of their age, probably why they died

Were never meant to stay, cried he died

Sung his melody, fought his war

Funny how still they are called platonic

Probably, in a new age, they born

Birth again, cause in the age of swords, bows and axes 

Flower of their love shall perish

This my mates, is why they were never meant to stay
