In Jeopardy. What is the ?
Feel free to substitute "her" with your own alcoholic/addict:
I met her - or did I really "meet" her?
I shared with her - but was it only an echo I heard back?
I loved her - but who was "she" really?
I married her - but what could "marriage" ever have meant to her?
I lived with her - but exactly when did the butterfly I "saw" mutate into a caterpillar?*
I experienced life with her - but what was true and real, not fraud or a figment?
We had dreams, hopes and plans with her - but could they really be "with" her?
We fought for her and our family - but "what" really for?
We accepted - but what?
For the Daily Double, please reveal ...
