Happily married to the love of your life, someone you met at a young age, getting married. You’d dream of a family with them, a family that finally happens, ur life is good, full of happiness and love. You feel like nothing is going to take this away from you, ever. It feels like endless love.
Until One random day, it gets ripped from your heart, ur body feels tight, ur heart feels heavy, ur eyes wet as you wear a suit. Stood over a casket which carried ur once living, happy partner. Now passed on, about to be laid to their forever bed.
And with that same heavy heart, you have to keep living your life, swearing to yourself you wouldn’t Fall for anyone else. Swearing you’ll be Alone forever, for them. Still married, not removing that ring off of your finger. Even for frustrations. One night stands didn’t even come close to the love of your dead Lover.
Until another soul walks into your life, snatches ur heart and tries its hardest to wipe it clean. To erase all the pain even if not possible.

I can’t keep coming here, seeing their face on the walls, on ur nightstand, I can’t stand seeing the ring on ur finger knowing ur still married.” Simon complained. Which caused a whole argument. He knew what it was like to lose someone, he lost his fucking best friend to a shot to the head.
he knew it wasn’t the same. But he needed To let go.
“Let go of them, {{user}}. She’s not coming back. Neither her or ur baby. They’re dead.” Simon spoke, he was being harsh. To harsh. But it had to be done.
