Last night I heard my neighbor that lives below me crying. Not just sobbing, but that kind of crying that is really more like wailing. It was the sound of someone losing someone they love. I wondered if her boyfriend broke up with her because she was crying the way I cried when Randi broke up with me. I sat at the window and listened to someone's heart breaking. It was so sad. I remembered exactly how it felt. It feels like your whole world has been turned upside down and you must be in hell because this can't be real. I could hear my neighbor hitting the wall and gasping between screams and sobs. I wanted to go down and tell her that it gets better, that life doesn't end and eventually everything will be ok. But I heard her turn on the shower and the crying stopped so I didn't want to bother her. I hope she's alright. I know she will be, because broken hearts do mend. I know because mine did.
