To D.

Today I read an excerpt that brought a tear to my eye.

"You will soon be 82 years old. You have shrunk 6 centimetres, you weigh no more than 45 kilos, and you are still beautiful, gracious and desirable. It is now 58 years that we have lived together and I love you more than ever...I check to see if you're breathing, my hand brushes over you. Neither of us wants to outlive the other. We always used to say that if, by some miracle, we were to have a second life, we'd like to spend it together."

-"Lettre a D: Histoire d'un amour" by Andre Gorz

This romantic Mr Gorz and his wife Dorine went on to their eternal bliss with some help of poison.
