A Clown's Life

Face painted white,

Lips wearing a red smile,

The nose of a ball so colossal,

Clothes that mimic comical.

Making people smile,

Hiding tears inside,

Laughing with shrieks,

Heartache never speaks.

Wearing a smiling disguise,

Mask is fuzzy vague,

Don’t stumble with fear,

I am not a creep, dear.

See the act I put,

With big shoes on the foot,

Let's design funny sight,

To make everything right.

You see a clown face,

But not my profile,

With smile sparkly painted,

A clown’s life is knotted.
