Unadoring Wife

Married to my friend you are You're trying to make him feel like a man By trapping him in a jar Your mask hides the devils horns I once thought I was a friend you adored The more you spoke, the more I was torn Isolation is humans worst enemy He's a good man and soon he'll see For now, I can only let this be.

Where does marriage start and friendship end. You have taken a tough stance, but expressed yourself well and truly reached an epiphany, if he is isolated, separated from a thousand( or less) dissenting voices, he can truly study the other person and himself, and see if it's where he belongs.
