Everyday as I walk down the street
I gaze up at the sun as it
Rains down on me.
People stop and stare at me
Thinking I'm a bit crazy
But little do they know...
I just smile.

Cloudy days take over the world
And frowns pass by as if
No one's heard
The Son has come
To save us all
But little do they know...
I just smile.

And yeah
I gotta love to
Feel this way and
Yeah
I wanna
Live this way
Cuz I know Him
I can
Feel Him...
So I just smile
Smile
Smile...

This was great....i really enjoyed this poem. Made me feel good.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Nice work... the dwindling line size did wonders for the flow.

As for the message, it's a nice one. Good, positive tone here.
Nice use of rain as a form of imagery.
