I think you got it all wrong, she has finished with him and agreed to see him one last time (87 % of women finish relationships, men muddle along!). Of course she cries at the end because it is sad to end a relationship.    Report

It's just crazy.  But, on the other hand, life's like that.  We try but we don't connect and we call it a day. I think that's what it's all about.  We love each other, we can't agree, we agree to part in a more or less civilised way but we may or may not get together again in the future.  What do you think?    Report

Clair, please, please put that in French in a format that would agree with the poem.  I am now really, really intrigued. I have thought along the lines of ....he leaves the cafe, walks along the left bank of the Seine and he commits suicide. But, what do I know, as my French teacher says, I lack the romanticism of French people!    Report

No, Pads, he's the villain of the piece!  She has done everything to please him but he is unappreciative and she is now at a loss as to what else she could do. He is one of these people who lives in their own world and barely notices the people around them.  He is not necessarily a bad person, just an unperceptive one.  And God helps the poor women who have to cope with him!      Report

But, he is so uncommunicative!  How is she supposed to know she has broken his heart, if indeed she has done such a thing? I loathe incommunicative men.  I'd rather they rave and swear.  At least you then know what they are thinking. But, to just sit there drinking his bloody coffee and then put on his hat and mac and leave without a word.  I think that is just so dreadful that, if I were she, I'd go out in the rain after him and demand that he at least say something even if it is "I don't love you anymore and I don't know why I have saddled myself with a woman such as you" Grrr.................bloody men!    Report
