Fallacy

When did I become wife and mother?
When did platonic love turn into marriage?
When did jealousy begin and contentment end?

How did I get to this place of need?

I was well left alone being the lonely girl.
I didn't think I would want what she has-
not with such ardor and necessity.

When did I start to ache with the words
"I love her"? It's all a blur now and
I can't envision when it all began or
how my mind got twisted into oblivion.

But I am here now and I see no sign of
near future escape. There's nothing
more I can do now but pretend things are
what they seem and have always been.
