Today The Demon called me. For a moment I was incredulous at the gall to dial my number. He spoke of our divorce and how he wanted to be sure we were no longer married. His reason is that his health is deteriorating and does not want me saddled with his bills. 2 years, a year ago white hot anger would have engulfed me. Today all I felt was sadness for him. This man I loved with all my heart and at one point hated with all my being is probably dying. The fate he didn’t want is probably facing him., illness by himself. Do I applaud because of the lies and hurt I felt brought on by him and the icy fear that filled me during the dark days of my HIV scare? Do I let it roll off my back like water without an ounce of concern?
At the end of the day I was my Mother’s child and I felt his pain and felt sorrow for the life we had and lost. I hope he makes it through with someone to hold his hand. No one deserves to be alone. ..LuuLuu
