Society

She loved another woman

But they told her it was wrong

So she left her love behind

Even though it broke her heart

They questioned her solitude

Life can't be lived alone, they said

So she gave herself to a man they chose

And wedding bells chimed

She believed in no god

And they said she was a sinner

So she believed in fiction

To escape their prison

And in the end

She was somebody else

But they didn't mind the deception

They like their version of her better

Suffocating in the darkness

Was a girl who only wanted to be herself

But was robbed of choice

Because they were too afraid

Of course, they lived happily ever after

Oppressing out of  fear

Suppressing their own desires

Afraid of what they were
