Little Lies

I don't want you.You mean nothing to me.I never loved you.I turned my words into swords. And I cut her down. Shoved the blade in and watched her fall. I said I'd never hurt her, and I did. Years later, I'm faced with all the little lies, the untruths, the false realities, the damage I inflicted, when all I wanted was to indulge my obsession.Lavender Waters is the princess in the tower. Even her name is the thing fairy tales are made of.I used to be the one who saved her.Over and over again.But I don't want to save her anymore.I just want to pretend the lies are still the truth.
