breakups

When it comes to breakups, pain is inevitable, but Humans thinks that suffering is optional.

It was going to be about trains.
I have romanticized trains for as long as I can remember. I don’t know when my love for them started, or how my love for them even got nurtured, because I didn’t grow up taking them (although my mom just told me we did a long train trip together before I could even walk, so maybe that sparked something in my almost brand-new brain, who knows.) I have long convinced myself that if I could just spend a month traveling around the country by rail, that I could write the great American novel, inspired by the gentle rocking and the whispered chug along the tracks. I have convinced myself that that is truly the only thing I need to craft a masterpiece is a long, uninterrupted train ride. (This, and/or a month in Manhattan in a brick-laden loft, plants hanging from the rafters, colorful carpets and loud neighbors and flashing neon from the bar across the way.) The characters would be formed by the passengers, back stories imagined and woven together based on their stops, their clothes, or from watching the woman and daughter waving at eachother through the window until we turned the bend. I have painted my own self as a mysterious passenger, typing away as the countryside ebbed and flowed from rolling green hills to flat, brown fields, people wondering who I am, creating their own stories about me. Who is that woman? Is she an author? Is she writing a book? Have I read anything she’s written? Maybe she’s a spy. Maybe a food critic. You get the picture- I would, in short, be mysterious, my fingers clicking away, creating my own story within a story because in my head, this is how an author, since the beginning of time, creates something worth reading.
