I love you more than you will ever know

Watching you leave was so hard
& gets harder every time
You belong here, mikayla
You're truly happy here
& it's written on your face

Quiet days are ahead of me
All alone, I sulk in my room
No more forced cuddling
No more talks till 5 in the morning
No more older sister love

I feel so empty
& I know something is missing
You bring out the best in me
I am myself when I'm with you
Without you here, I feel so quiet

I have to push myself to be happy in my home
With you here, it came naturally
I wasn't afraid to stand up for myself
I wasn't afraid to tell the truth
I just wasn't afraid.

I worry about you, out there on your own
All alone, without your big sister
Facing all those high school days
Without your boo there to boss you around
Or tell you that you look beautiful today

You have to face your days without me there to guide you
Bitches and hoes will try to tear you down
Terrible people will offer you terrible things
No one to have a face to face conversation with
Will you make the right decisions?

My heart tells me yes
You are a wonderful girl, Mikayla
Your heart is as big as a lions
Your smile lights up city blocks
& your laugh lifts any heavy heart

I'm just a worry wart
But it's all out of love, I swear it.
You make me feel beautiful
You make me feel sane
You make me feel alive.

"Oh, I know that I am here
& you are there
But we still have our love.
We move just like the moon and sun.
The sun comes up
The moon rolls down.
A world apart, but they don't make a sound.
They know their love spins us round.
I've been to heaven and I've been to hell.
I've been to vegas and God knows where.
But nothing feels like home like you, babe.
I love you more than you will ever know."
