I paint my face with colors <br />I wear the laugher around my lips <br />I am doing summersaults <br />I am doing stupid acts <br />To entertain the masses <br />I am falling and waking up <br />To bring smiles on faces <br />Behind the thick layer of colors <br />My face is burned by tears <br />I am just a clown.... <br />Life plays me mercilessly <br />I want to stop this act <br />I am so tired of this play<br /><br />Raj Thampi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/painted-face-2/
