This is a poem in old English, very eloquent and very passionate.

Strike, sway, strike, strike, sway
My soul runs amok.
Bless me with thy music forevermore.

I liked this stanza best, it reveals so much about the feelings the writer has for the significant other:)

Well done!

Excellently done. I was always going to like this as I love poems/novels written in old English. I have spent many years of my life obsessed with Shakespeare!
It really isn't easy to do, and most English don't come close, so well done for being brave enough to give it a go, but also for doing it so well.

All the best,

Ben

I like the language of old English and you have penned it well
without a single hic cup! It flowed and from the read I gather lots
of feelings lie within it...well done!

nicely penned!

Very good Miss M, your old English is better than my modern day haha :)

well written piece of emotions x

Mel, this is very beautiful :) I love that you've written this in old English, as that's what I'm used to reading religious texts in. For some reason old English seems to suit this topic best.

"Bold of me to try to
solidify Thee in phrases
that come beating out of my heart's recess."
