We fell in love
and as we did so, our masks fell
We learned about each other, and ourselves
Realizing that we were pawns, thoughtless
raised to behave a certain way, to get a more desirable outcome.
Marriage certainly seemed to be a desirable outcome, before we knew
that we weren't who we thought
Maybe he sees it differently
Maybe it could've worked out one way or another
But he could never defend me in the ways I needed defending
love me the ways I needed loving
So I will learn to do it myself
This is the outcome I choose
