<blockquote><p><strong><em>Why are we strangers, awkward with each other?</em></strong><br />
<strong><em>Who are we, left standing?</em></strong><br />
<strong><em>Show us how to bear the numbness, or the blazing and the chill.</em></strong><br />
<strong><em>Help us face forward, listen, breathe each other&rsquo;s air</em>.</strong></p></blockquote>
