Send In The Clowns Poem by Amri Miller

Send In The Clowns



Laugh, don't cry now
Wipe your tears and put on a smile
The world loves a smile
When my heart is breaking
When my life is changing
When you treat me like nothing
I wear my smile like a mask
It fits me perfectly
It hides the hurt
It hides the real me from the world
I have a clown in my head
His face is painted white, his lips rosy red
He has stars for eyes
When I cry, he laughs
My tears remove the paint from his face
While I sleep, he paints his face again
My clown has no name, but I do
