I poured out my heart and it spilled onto the floor.<\/p>\n
We stood<\/p>\n
looking at it for a while.<\/p>\n
Eventually,<\/p>\n
I wiped it up with paper towels<\/p>\n
as she watched.<\/p>\n
Every visit after that<\/p>\n
We both remembered the mess<\/p>\n
I\u2019d made on the floor.<\/p>\n
But she never mentioned it.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t want to be rude.<\/p>\n
