Love is different for everyone
Humans find love in the simple things, such as afternoon strolls, weddings and sunset kisses
Waiting for their other soul to come back from war safe
To protect them and love them in return
Two souls winding togethe...
'Tell me oblivion is not enough to tear you from me" - LHZ the poet

"Are you ready?" Hermes asked from the other side of the door "I think so" I said nervously, looking at myself in the mirror Hermes came in, staring at me "Good or bad?" I asked
"Good... beautiful" he corrected himself, making me smile "Come on, let us leave before Hades burns the fields" he chuckled
"He is angry?" I asked "No, he is nervous. Nervous and worried that you will back out" he said "Why would I back out?" I asked, following his lead as he took me up the stairs to the doors "No reason it... it is insecurity Sephy, it often drives men to the many foolish decisions they make throughout their lives" Hermes explained
Insecurity? "He is worried to lose you, it is clear to see, you... you are too good for us all Seph" he said, helping me into the chariot "I am not as pure as people think" I said I had disappointed my mother, hurt Hades before and I... I lashed out at Minthe
I kept her prisoner in the soil below my window
"Well you are still purer than the rest of us" he argued, setting us off

"She will be here, stop fretting" Gaia said I looked around again, the fields went for miles, there was no movement in the sky, no movement of the ground She was not here
Only the entirety of Olympus who had insisted to come and watch To judge Zeus and Poseidon had turned my wedding into a commodity.
"Are we late?" Poseidon asked, seating himself "No" I grumbled "She has not shown up?" Hera asked, feigning concern
I ignored them, turning away from them Waiting Waiting in agony Where is she?

"Hermes... have you seen my mother? Do you know if she..." I faltered, of course she would not come "Sorry, I have not" he let me know I sighed A parent was supposed to walk their child down the aisle
Give them away and know they were safe in new hands In loving and caring hands But she would not walk me down the aisle
And she would never agree to hand me away "Do you want me to walk you down?" Hermes asked I shook my head, he had done enough by showing up
I did not want to take advantage or hurt his feelings any more than I had to "I shall be fine, I can walk alone" I said confidently
"Alright... I will see you up there then" he said, kissing my hand, before he left me Alone... holding a bouquet of sunflowers.
