Analysis of Cloudy Day
It's hard to smile on a cloudy day
Unless you're the type of person who likes the rain
It's hard to cry while you smile
My eyes drop tears like a child's
Some say it's water under the bridge
Many of us cry while others live
All to survive and forced a look
Our lives forever in a book
Some may say
"will we be okay"
Open up your eyes
Life always seems to surpass time
