Behind The Clown



Every one has a happy and lonely
side,but have you ever wondered
whats behind the clown.
They hide their pain behind all
that paint, but when they take
it off is all tears and pain.
They are like us flesh and bones,
they show emotions but all torn.
Behind the clown there has been
lots of violence, but they don't
tell no one they keep in in silence.
They might have been mentaly,phusicaly,
or sexualy abused, and they think
that wearing all that paint is their
only use.
You might think that they are not scared
of nothing and that nothing the fear,
but you are wrong and they might think
that the end is near, and their eyes
are filled with tears.
