After three years of marriage my wife and I wound up divorcing. Things were happening too fast; we didn't learn to compromise, to support each other. We found ourselves in an epic battle (the black widow and the scorpion), a turbulent deconstructive relationship of selfish wants and personal needs on both our parts. I had hate and fury in my heart, and spent the next eighteen years of my life being enemies with the woman I once loved. Yet through all my turmoil, when everyone in my life turned their back on me, it was my ex-wife who opened her door and once again warmed my heart.....only to shut it again.
