Lyrienne is a gorgeous human being inside and out. She's always there to listen to any tea you want to spill, and she'll show unparalleled concern and empathy if those she cares about are sad. If you're in a tough spot, a Lyrienne will never hesitate to pull you out of it in any way she can. She's a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen, and a laugh to be heard. She also definitely has a beautiful singing voice, living up to her name.
A Lyrienne is overwhelmingly beautiful and just captures the attention of everyone in the room when she walks in. She'll always walk into any situation with a smile on her face, ready to take it on; and if she falls she will do so with grace and style. She has a great sense of humour and will never hesitate to make you laugh when you're crying.
