You know when you thought you had something and you finally lose it
It hurts like hell
And you can't seem to be comforted
Watching what you love most leave you
It tears a big part of you
It's a scar that's never going to heal

John's POV

I watched her go and fell to the ground. How did this happen. I thought we won. I thought it was finally going to be okay but I was wrong. I love her and the thought of her getting married to someone else breaks my heart. I didn't know how to live knowing the one I love was someone else's.

The boat men who watched the whole scene felt for me and they reassured me that I will get my own love and left

But I knew my love was Anna and I lost her forever.

******
The wedding bells were ringing
Never will I have thought I would dread the sound
I wanted to destroy the bell
I never imagined I would be so heartbroken on a day when I thought it will only be filled with joy
I lost my only joy
I lost my reason to happiness
Maybe I wasn't meant for love
I accepted and moved on
Though I knew I carried a scar that will never heal

Anna's POV

I walked down the aisle with a sharp pain in my chest. I just wanted someone to wakes me up and tell me it's a nightmare. Someone to tell me, that I could get married to John at that point I hated everything and everyone.

My heart and brain wanted to blame my parents, Lucius and myself for everything that happened. At that point, I almost turned bitter. I wanted to resent life and treat everyone with resentment but I knew best.

I might have been hurt but I'll won't let my pain turn me into a bitter person. I'll be a good wife. John won't want me to become a bitter person and it's not who I am as a person also.

I took my vows at the altar and prayed to God to help me heal and accept my reality. At the moment when we were pronounced husband and wife. I knew I lost the hope of ever being with John. I then took up the responsibility of loving and caring for Lucius for the rest of my life.

I had to move on and make a difference even if it costs my happiness.
