Tracks of tears down a reddened face,
Tears that fall in a similar place,
Eyes that stare through a curtain of lace,
Are these the tears of a clown?
A smile that could light up the sky,
Hidden behind an all familiar sigh,
From deep inside, an Inhumane cry,
Are these the tears of a clown?
Convincing many that all is well,
A story, far too horrid to tell,
Wanting release from this living HELL
Are these the tears of a clown?
Dementia invades my every act,
The two together, in a Devils Pact,
But I won’t give in, and that’s a fact!!
Are these the tears of a clown?
