Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Rick Riordan does. Hmm..Did you know that Rick Riordan wrote murder mysteries? I happened to find a mystery with a review of his on it….
This is a poem, in Thalia's point of view.
My Beloved Lucas
I tried to forget
His sandy hair
His bright blue eyes
His flashing smile
His name brings back
The countless memories
But most of all
All the misery he dealt
I remember his courage
The last stand on the hill
The fight to the death-
And the Change
But I remember his cruelty
His lying and cheating
His innocent smile
Which concealed
The madness within
He told me that he loved me
He said that he'd
Never leave me
He said that I would
Never be alone
So many years ago
Lucas-
He was a backstabber
A hurter, a maimer
A murderer
My love
I tried to forget
But he taunted
And he sneered
So we fought
Sword against spear
Good versus evil
Men and him
On the misty cliffs
So many years ago
He smirked and he laughed
He said I was too weak
That I was so trusting
So loving, so kind
So we fought
My strength against his speed
My spear against his sword
And I pushed him off
The misty cliffs
So many years ago
I tried to forget
His sandy hair, now filthy
His bright blue eyes, dark with hate
His flashing smile, now
Replaced with a gasp of pain
He asked, no, he begged
For a hint of mercy
I saw his broken body
His crushed limbs
His plea of forgiveness
And I remembered
His golden hair
His sky blue eyes
His bright, loud laugh
But I remembered
His lying and cheating
His killing and hurting
And I gave him
What he truly deserved
Lucas-
My darling, my love
My memories fade
But our love never will
I remember…
His fading pleas
His closing eyes
His dusty hair
So many years ago
Lucas-
He is gone now
But his name is cursed
His accomplishments forgotten
By all save one:
Me
The last I is dotted
The last T is crossed
The covers are closed
The pen is dropped
I sigh, my thoughts wandering
Over the well traveled
Channels of my mind:
My thoughts of Lucas
His cheerful grin
His dancing eyes
The remnants of the person
The person I once knew
So many years ago
