&quot;I understand that love and tragedy go hand in hand, for there can&rsquo;t be one without the other, but nonetheless I find myself wondering wether the tradeoff is fair.&quot;<br /> -Nicholas Sparks

Are you there?

These cold, lonely nights
Are really getting old

If you’re out there
Please reach out
And let me know
That I’m not alone

Show me the light
So I can survive
The wrath of the Pitch Black night

Getting by is hard enough
When you’ve got to make yourself tough
So please lighten the load
And let me know that I’m not alone

So if you’re out there
And if you’re wondering if you’re the only one with the problems you’ve got
I just want to let you know

That you are not alone
