to my father, and to the last man I ever had to remove
I forgive you, but the smallest part of me hates you, because of all the ways boys have never been good enough for me, for all the times I have wasted my mind, and because [he] doesn't deserve my ugly thoughts, skepticism, and trust issues.
I forgive you, but the smallest part of me hates you, because I have seen and now can believe that even the most charming man with the most words has a deep dark secret as sweet as even I can be, with a heart as split as my mind.
