Written: February 8, 2021
Context: I got really inspired to write this one day. Apollon basically said "poetry time" and I came out of a writing haze to this lol. It's a poetic rewrite of a story about one of Apollon's lovers. Can you guess which one?
Warnings: vague mentions of death
~ Poem ~
A fine summer's day
Outside, we both play
A simple game
The wind and sun both caress me
As I run about the courtyard freely
One filled with joy, one with jealousy
As only one holds the true key
I throw with all my might to see if I can get his godly precision to crack
He grins at my hubris and my mortal strength is no match
The disc comes back,
I look at my love with a smile and a laugh before seeing the panic in his eyes as- the world goes black
...
Nothing...
Darkness...
Absence... of light
Absence... of him
And my realization is grim
As I feel my beating heart dim
And my head starts to swim
My last thought is only of him
