I watched this movie few years ago. 300 Spartans, Spartan soldiers at the battle of Thermopylae. They fought with giant Persian army. This is particularly based on the movie, but the war is more complicated history. If you have seen the movie you already knew what I'm talking about if you not the poem would sound to you a little fantasy. The war end to the Persian victory. But there was a girl who suffered along the battle. She spent days and nights on the mountains looking after her lover at the end she got him back. I think he was the only one left alive from the battle field, at least on the movie. Thank you for reading.
Spartans defeated, love won
My love, you are a good soldier sword on your hand
Three hundred Spartans, a warrior behind
Heading to the battle field victory ahead
I have accepted to join the Spartan’s army again;
Great honor to a Spartan man
Dying for his love, people, and country, freedom may remain.
Replied with courageous words, I’m always proud of
you!
I wish I would live in your heart on earth few years
Or I will die on your side; grave could be a good
place for lovers
Victory shall be yours, my love
I am on the mountains like flying birds
Prying to the gods of Spartans,
They might bring you back into my arms
Then you will tell me stories, stories of the battle field
Watching twilight and we will own the night
Only you and I on the planet
Interchange our natural secret, fantasy is our world
I am a new born baby please untie my blouse
Wash my body with your soft hands
Touch all over; I’m a new born baby on your eyes
I will give you my life in front of the stars witness
to our covenant.
After a long pause he asked, what my love? Looking at her
blue eyes
Why is war out there?
Why is it proud to be Greece and Spartan?
I have been watching stars, birds, and fishes
In the last few days peace has upon them always
Unfortunately we humans kill each other to name
victory
Freedom has to come temporarily
At the end we are all criminals of history.
Beaut is in Words!
