Orpheus was a poor boy, with a rhythm and a rhyme.
Eurydice was a hungry young girl, no stranger to hard times.
She was but a wilting lily petal on the river they called Styx.
She'd waited for the one she loved too long, so now she drifts.
Orpheus was a sunflower, as bright as summer's day.
Always leaning towards the light, he saw the world his way.
When she called out to him he came, to see what she had done.
Orpheus was a sunflower. Eurydice was his sun.

Tidal Wave (Luke Castellan)
When I was young, I was always told that everyone loved a tragic Greek love story. Orpheus and Eurydice. Apollo and Hyacinth. Hero and Leander. Achilles and Patroclus. I had asked my mother why so many of those stories didn't have happy endings. She just gave me a grim smile and told me how the world of the gods was tricky. There was a lot about it that I didn't understand yet. That was 13 years ago. I think I understand it now.![Please Don't Take My Sunshine Away [Solangelo]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/54503656-256-k618763.jpg)
