I didn’t want you. I wanted perfection; I wanted to be perfect, not destroyed by the mangled visions of a dream. You aren’t perfect, Ana. You’re a fake pretence of perfection and I could see right through you. I didn’t care about you and I never even thought about you.
But you stayed by my side, haunting my footsteps and whispering your twisted ideas in my ear. You knew I didn’t care, but you stayed. You stayed and I hate you for it, because before I knew it I fell for you.
I wish you’d left me in peace. But I’m yours now, and you’re my dirty little secret. You’re my skeleton in the cupboard, the one that wants to break free and tell the world. And I do love you, although it hurts. I love your clean white bones. I love you to the bone.
