Analysis of Break Up Cloudy Skies



The sun rises each morning even if you don't.
The sun gives fidelity
even if you won't.

The sun supports every life even if you don't.
The sun nurtures healthiness
even if you won't.

The sun moderates a chill even if you don't.
The sun warms altogether
even if you won't.

The sun has a smiley face even if you don't.
The sun fosters happiness
even if you won't.

The sun breaks up cloudy skies even if you don't.
The sun shines after tempests
even if you won't.
