'Saera' by Ravyn LaRue

Look, I’ve done this before.

I’ve already tried many times.

But at my best I cannot capture your essence.

Your aura is elusive but beautiful.

Probably because have been so many people in your lifetime.

You value that transformation more than any other student.

It’s absolutely admirable.

If I could have a fraction of that dedication to anything, I’d be set.

I should’ve told you all this, earlier than now.

I should’ve befriended you sooner.

I should’ve joined forces with you when both our roles were stolen.

But it was far more treasonous of them to take your spotlight than mine.

I had my chances, and I’m content with them.

But you deserve only the best.

Though you’ve been given some of the worst.

You’re such a brilliant beautiful person.

I’m so glad you and the other two will have each other.

I could go on and on forever about spectacular traits you possess.

But unlike so many others

I feel like you’re self aware about your great triumphs.

Bad happens.

But you’ve had the strength and smarts to pull yourself up.

Dust yourself off.

Put on a pretty dress.

And keep moving forward.

That’s admirable, too.

You’re a very admirable person.

And I know

You have the perseverance to achieve your highest ambitions.

Because, above all, you deeply deserve to.
