Marry Anyway

"No"

A single word

Yet so final

So tragic,

A denial of something

Truly wanted in this case

It was supposed to be a

'yes'

An agreement,

For happiness between two people

Who loved each other enough

To spend their lives together,

Denied

By a very important person

To one of them,

And then by extension,

Both of them

Because one did not go without the other

That was their promise,

A year old promise

Made in only whispers,

Which made the approval

Worthless

His reputation was to blame,

He knew that,

But she had never cared

His Death Eater past had never bothered her

Not then,

And not now

She had hoped

Enough could be done

To change her father's mind

But he had heard enough

Her father's mind had been made

Even before the question had been uttered

As had theirs,

They were going to marry anyway
