For Your Own Good

You smiled at him.
That's fine-I forgive you.
You're sweet, careless, and so stupidly trusting. But that's why I love you. And that's why I'm here. To protect you. From men like him. From the world. From yourself.

You don't see it yet, but I'm the best thing that's ever happened to you.
I hold the door open when your hands are full. I text you from a fake number when you're lonely. I delete his messages before you can read them. I was there the night you cried alone in your apartment, watching you from the alley while your light flickered and your mascara ran down your cheeks.

And when he touched you-I snapped.
Not out of rage. Out of love.

Don't look at me like I'm the villain.
You're the one who made me feel this way.
You're the one who taught me that love is sacrifice.
So I'll bleed for you. Lie for you. Kill for you.
All for your own good.

Now sit back.
Lock your door if you want to.
But remember-I've already made a copy of your key.
