[Completely Private]

Did I ever do anything that was this cruel to you
Did I ever make you wonder who was standing in the room
You made yourself look perfect in every way
So when this goes down, I'm the one that will be blamed
Your plan is working so you can just walk away
Baby your secret's safe

Stranger -- Hilary Duff

I thought it was what I wanted. I thought I had finally found my place in this world, someplace safe from all the pain and heartache I've endured over the years. I thought I'd found the one person who could love me without restraint, who would be completely open and honest with me no matter the consequence.

But I was wrong. It was all a lie.

He never loved me. He's not capable of love. I can't even say that I loved him. How could I? He was never the man I thought he was, not even close. Our entire relationship, our marriage, our child, none of it was real. It was all a facade, part of some elaborate plot to make me his possession, a trophy he could wave in the face of his enemy.

At least Clark had a good reason to hide who he was from me. Clark wanted to protect me, but Lex? All he ever did was manipulate me to get what he wanted.

None of it was real. It was all a lie.
