"Night of the Ceremony"
It was the day of my crowning that I met you.
Your blue eyes catch mine once
And then you vanish.
Who on earth are you.
Seda laid his new garment on the table. It was his father's outfit, the one he was to wear for his Crowning Ceremony. It had a long robe that extended at the bottom, and buttoned together at the top. Worn with crème colored pants and a crown, it was truly a suit fit for a king. Seda bit his lip when that thought led to his father. Pushing it out of his mind with great difficulty, Seda sighed and began preparing for his ritual.
"Long live King Seda!" The crown was placed upon his head as his people cheered. Seda, know officially King Seda, forced a smile for the sake of the celebration. His eyes scanned the crowd, for no particular reason. Suddenly, he say blue eyes flash. His heart leapt when he caught hold of them, they were so beautiful. The color of a deep blue ocean, yet the paleness of the sky on a cloudless day.
'They are so amazing...' Seda thought to himself as he gazed into the seemingly bottomless depth of those cerulean eyes. "Such elegance," he murmured to himself, under his breath. The rest of the people faded away, until it was only he and the aquamarine eyes.
"My lord?" The voice of his advisor shattered the spell.
His thoughts were broken asunder, and he snapped back a quick answer. "What!"
"I thought you spoke, My Lord." His advisor remarked timidly, before bowing deeply. "I apologize."
Seda searched for the azure eyes, but could not find them. He sighed, "You are forgiven." Calm soon masked his face, but inside, his mind was whirling. 'Who on earth are you?'
