apollo

lute and lyre, pluck my strings to sing your tune

let your gentle voice cascade and fill the air

your fingers strum, your talent a boon

each word flowing off your tongue like a prayer

 

enchanted by the divine grace of your harp

let slackened strings release a crystalline sound

your gaze pierces the mundane, like arrows it is sharp

listening to the magic of your notes, we are forever interwound

 

in a chariot across the sky, i look down to see you, my muse

stuck longing for you, is this my tragedy?

untouchable in your beauty, you are a vision my heart cannot deny

your radiance blinds me, my love and sorrow fuse.

​​to lose you to mortal means is fate’s cruel melody

for i am bound to heaven, while you on earth fly

your music soothes, yet i cannot bear this reality

 

i hear you now in the song of the birds, a divine epiphany

your music tugs at the strings of my sunlight heart like a bewitching symphony
