Ada

Agelessly beautiful and benevolent 
Wise in the simplest of ways

“I’ve never been bored in my life”
She once said to me

Me, the definition of bored
She does not know this, but I do

They don’t see me as I see myself
I wish I could borrow her beautiful heart 

Just for one day so I could learn 
How exactly life is to be live

You are a gift
