Once upon a time
when I walked into the room
Your eyes lite up
You smiled like I was your dream
We talked and my opinion mattered
Now
I speak you get upset
I walk in the room and reruns matter more
O God, guide me, protect me, make of me a shining lamp and a brilliant star. Thou art the Mighty and the Powerful. —‘Abdu’l-Bahá
