a sing-a-long song

The beauty of empathy is that it takes two broken hearts and times them to the same beat. And even for a little bit, you both are able to make sense of the irregularity of your heart's music as you realize that the song you are singing is not as rare as you thought it was. Quiet cries become passionate prayers and passionate prayers become enduring anthems and those enduring anthems are sung aloud from hearts believing that pain is the first step to joy.
