overly educated
neurotic
uptight
high strung
feminist
soccer mom

you screamed
asked me
why i’d left
was a coward
for walking away

i got tired
of the nagging
petty fights
power struggles
emasculation

you aren’t feminine
nurturing
maternal
you have the body of a woman
but the mentality of a man

i was miserable
living with you
i left
to save my health
self respect
masculinity
