Michelle

Morning light creeping through the bedroom door

Getting ready for school, feet hitting the floor

You’d sit me down, take the comb in your hand

Working out the tangles, helping me stand

You always had that patience, you took your time

Making sure every single piece was aligned

Even back then, you were my guiding light

Making sure my heavy days turned out right

Michelle, we’re sisters through the laughter and the tears

Holding each other down across the years

You always lift me up when I am feeling low

I just need to take a second to let you know

We love you always, in every single way

So soak up the love, and enjoy your birthday

Life gets heavy and the world spins fast

But the bond that we built was made to last

Whenever I stumble, whenever I doubt

You’re the encouraging voice that pulls me out

You never rush the healing, you understand

Still that same sister with the patient hand

A steady rhythm in a hurried space

Bringing so much peace with your quiet grace

Michelle, we’re sisters through the laughter and the tears

Holding each other down across the years

You always lift me up when I am feeling low

I just need to take a second to let you know

We love you always, in every single way

So soak up the love, and enjoy your birthday

From the mirrors in our childhood room

To the women that we’ve grown into

Every secret shared, every time we cried

I’m so grateful to have you by my side

This is your moment, let the music play

We are celebrating your beautiful heart today

Michelle, we’re sisters through the laughter and the tears

Holding each other down across the years

You always lift me up when I am feeling low

I just need to take a second to let you know

We love you always, in every single way

So soak up the love, and enjoy your birthday
