i often wonder what others see <br />when standing face to face with me <br />the constant joker, playing the clown <br />always laughing never a frown <br /> <br />but in the mirror i see whats true <br />a different story not to be seen by u <br />theres many words i keep unspoken <br />a heavy heart that has been broken <br /> <br />the clown the joker its just a face <br />to fill the empty silent space <br />that once was filled by a special light <br />sadly extinguished and out of sight <br /> <br />i will not give in and i wont fall apart <br />i'll carry on dad with u locked in my heart <br />in the tears that have fallen im sure i could drown <br />but its all kept behind the face of a clown<br /><br />megan watts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/behind-the-clown/
