Hour Six: Love Always, Your Freshman Biology Teacher

To the most disruptive girl in class

The one who had to be separated

From her friends to pay attention

And then became sad and shut down

Rather than bright and engaged

I see you finally fulfilling that potential

We spoke about so many times

I know I was never your favorite

And I appreciated the letter you wrote me

Long after you’d graduated and gone and

Just know that

Although I’m not sure what it would mean to you,

you’ve

made

me

proud.
