She told him
she was leaving him
he said okay fine.
she got mad at him
for not protesting
she expected begging
or at least attempts
to talk her out of leaving
because of his indifference
she almost changed her mind
but packed her bags
and left him anyway
until a month later when
she called him and said
why don’t we make up
and get back together
he said no way I don’t
turn back the clock or make
the same mistake twice.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
