Even when there are
times of down
and spirals that
move our minds
to the worst
of places,
the sun still shines,
At moments when
the world is crammed full
of delicious victories
and fist-pumping triumphs,
and nothing,
it seems,
can defeat our ways
to the top,
the sun still shines.
When there is loss
and the sting of tragedy,
and it appears like
the treasures
we admired so much,
and for so long,
have been
stolen away,
still the sun shines.
Our living,
and our breathing,
our waking days
and sleeping nights,
exist in the fact
that the sun
still shines.
