dear guy,
it wasn't supposed to happen like this.
i swear to you.
but it was never supposed to be us, either.
it breaks my heart to say it, but how could it have been when dad runs my life with an iron fist? i keep looking out the window of my picturesque home, seeing your face in every man that walks past. it's getting harder to do as i begin to forget what you look like. i wonder when the window panes began to look like prison bars.
i hope you don't think it was my fault. i was whisked away, not even in love, but into courtship, and before i knew it, i was married to a man i could not even look at, for i felt and still feel nothing for him.
dad says this is good for me, and it brings angry tears to my eyes, because i cannot believe he still thinks i am so gullible. david thinks i am gullible, too, and i hate it. both men have tied a noose around my throat and are squeezing the life out of me until my skin is gray.
is this what i am meant to do with my life? as a woman? is this how fathers and spouses are allowed to treat us?
i don't know if i will ever send these letters. i don't know if i will be allowed to.
i love you, guy. so much that it hurts. i promised you that i always would. i wonder if that promise was a curse.
but i love you. and i hate my father. and i hate that he hated you so much that he took me away from you.
he has whittled away my life until it is nothing, and beyond repair.
i even forgot how to cry.
love, gracie.
