Interesting Katie. I still think the first part is about Sarima. Even the "she loved him, you know". Their marriage may have been arranged but She Love Him, You Know.. lol The part about folding up his clothes I am sure is Sarima. I think she always kept things ready for his return.
I think both Sarima and Elphaba were asking themselves if it is over. They were caught up in something bigger than themselves. Sarima obviously had no control over the situation and the situation got out of hand for Elphaba.
I could be dead wrong but I do not see Glinda in this song. I think Glenda was controlled by a spell and had very little clue that she was being used as a pawn. I think Hannah is switching from 3rd to 1st person in the lyrics and that is where the "I" comes from.
