Apollo Animam Meam
I’d follow you to the ends of the earth, always at your side,
I could wrap myself in your arms and wait there till I died.
I’d lay my head upon your chest and listen to your heartbeat,
I would hold you close and sleep in peace enveloped in your heat.
I’d feel your every muscle move, as in safety they’d keep,
My heart and soul secured in them, protected from the deep,
That nevermore could drag me down, anchored to your soul,
Forever harboured in your arms,

Turbatus ab Apolline
Oh how my heart soars, whenever my phone pings,
When your name pops up, oh how my soul sings.
I feel like a fool but I can’t stop the smile,
And I indulge in the bliss, at least for a while.
I wish I could talk to you about oh so very much,
I wish I could reach out and your face I could touch.
I prattle a while about some nonsense or other,
And all of my insides are all of aflutter.
Oh how my heart will break, when it all goes awry,
When you finally move on, oh how my soul will cry.
I feel like a fool but I can’t stop the flame,
And I indulge in the dream that will lead my pride to shame.
I wish I could let you go, oh so very much,
I wish I could reach out and all my sense I’d clutch.
I rattle a while thinking how I’ll screw it up,
And all of my insides are running amuck.
Oh how my heart doth wish, that God this ache would bless,
When I kneel before Our Lord, oh how my soul confess.
I feel like a fool but I can’t stop the prayer,
And I indulge in the yearning, that soon will be my slayer.
I wish I could make you want to be my friend,
I wish I could keep you with me, until my very end.
I battle a while against my very heart,
And all of my insides from this love cannot depart.

Apollinem Tabulae Rotundae
The world tried to drown me, in the depths of despair,
A war in my soul, it did gleefully declare.
It quickly descended and tore my heart asunder,
In my confusion I stumbled, as it battled to drag me under.
My eyes flowed with tears as I couldn’t see the way,
As I railed against dear God and forgot how to pray.
I tripped and I fell, into the quicksand of hell,
As the pain that doth dwell, in my core began to swell.
I began pulling up all roots, to retreat to the refuge,
To once again save myself, from Satan’s evil rouse.
Confirmed in betrayal of all that I hold dear,
It tore through my soul, like a serrated diamond spear.
Then in the darkness did thee dawn, thou wrested me from woe,
And tenderly did set me down, and then did hope thee sow.
The solace that thou brought, could nowhere else be sought,
The comfort that thou wrought, reduced the pain to naught.
Thou made me smile and knitted the wound,
Thou caught my fall and sat me on the moon.
Thou wrapped me close, with thy warm affection,
I felt secure in thy noble protection.
I thank the Lord that He did send, a saint like thee to me,
A giant of a man art thee, who flew to set me free.
A tender, kind and loving soul, a perfect knight thou art,
Eternally I think that thee, may ever hold my heart.
