Sasa,You shine

Sasa, the room gets quiet when you close your eyes

But your laughter still lingers like stars in the skies

You wear your pain like a well worn coat

Still cracking jokes just to keep us afloat

You’ve faced the storm, you’ve walked through fire

Still, you hold on with gentle defiance

There’s beauty in the way you breathe

Even when the world makes it hard to believe

You shine, Sasa, even in the dark

Even when the days try to pull you apart

You shine, like the sun through the rain

Like hope that whispers in the face of pain

I see your soul, soft and strong

And I’ll be here, cheering you on

Your laugh is a light we hold so dear

A melody we all need to hear

Even when the tears fall slow

You remind us how far love can go

And if the weight feels too much to bear

Let me be the voice that reminds you I care

Lean on me when you need to cry

We’ll paint the sky with every why

You can get through this, I’ve seen your fight

Even in shadows, you chase the light

And no matter what, come storm or time

This friendship of ours will always shine

You shine, Sasa, like a moon that won’t fade

A spark in the dark that won't be swayed

You shine, in your quiet grace

A warrior in a tender place

I see your heart, I know it’s true

This world is better because of you

So hold on, love, you're not alone

In every breath, you've made strength your own

Through every change, through every climb

I'll be your friend till the end of time

Sasa, you shine brighter than you know

And I’ll walk with you, wherever you go
