Little Lies - H. Hunting

I don’t want you.\n You mean nothing to me. I never loved you.\n I turned my words into swords. And I cut her down. Shoved the blade in and watched her fall.\n I said I’d never hurt her, and I did.\n 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.\n Lavender Waters is the princess in the tower. Even her name is the thing fairy tales are made of.\n I used to be the one who saved her. Over and over again.\n But I don’t want to save her anymore. I just want to pretend the lies are still the truth.\n
