A classical story
The story I am about to tell is in a way
a very classical story.
A love story.
With a dramatic ending.
We met on her birthday, the seventh of february.
We lived together for about a hunderd days, three months,
making love, enjoying life.
We separated a month after we got married.
The whole affair had taken less than six months.
Seven, if the divorce is included.
It has been like a dream.
Now, I must wake up, get on with my life.
But it is difficult.
I miss her.
I can't forget, unless I understand.
Why were we not able to build a normal life?
What did I do wrong?
Writing the story is like an intellectual revenge.
Emotionally, she has proven to be too strong for me,
too lively, too unpredictable, too vulnerable.
A poor revenge, indeed.
But I can't do any better.
She left me.
What moved her was beyond me.
Too complex and too dark.
