Tears of a Clown

Why do you mime ?
What do you see
Life in all its mystery
Why the laughter
Why the tears?
Moods change
So very momentary

I see your tears
Behind the facade
I see a life
strung on
irreconcilable fears,
I see a pain
under the painted face
Yearning for solace
Thirsting an embrace !

Your cheerful smile may be
just for a while
Yes you can’t camouflage
that hurt inside
Stop !
Don’t feign that smile
Rather try to heal
the wound inside.
