Though getting back together was non negotiable for him,
he sometimes thought about the good times they had
now that he was an old man all alone at the end of his life.
Despite her being an extrovert who always had to be away from home
and him being an introvert homebody preferring to be home more
than always on the move with other people, there had been
some great and memorable times.
And though getting back together had been non negotiable for him,
he was saddened by her death at age 58, probably from a cancer,
he wished her well and hoped she had peace and eternal happiness
on the other side of this impermanent life, and sometimes wished
they could have had a compatible, lasting love.
But sometimes a fairy tale love is just a fairy tale.
Bob Boyd
