TEARS OF A CLOWN

Have you ever felt so lost
Felt you’ll never find your way
Didn’t matter what you told yourself
A penance you must pay
Beat your mind into a pulp
Hated every thought you said
Thought you were so worthless
Couldn’t breathe; wished you were dead
Such a sad and lonely figure
But the sadness you enjoyed
It served to keep you company
Helped to fill the hopeless void
You wake to hear a pin drop
Wasn’t sleeping anyway
Just resting your poor weary eyes
To prepare for groundhog day
Time is spent just dwelling
It really sucks you down
Reliving all your miseries
The tears of a sad old clown
You wallow in unhappiness
Devour all your pain
Make those around you feel it
Your loss; but not their gain
They love you unconditionally
Take in on the chin
Hope a smile it may prevail
So they’ll see your wicked grin
They just want you to be happy
Cos they love you more than life
Your pain, they all can feel it
Cuts them too, just like a knife
Understanding life’s frustrations
But don’t let them drag you down
Wear your beautiful happy smile
Throw away that angry frown
Cos this life it may be dreary
Feel so pointless; make you sad
But there is no doubt; just open your eyes
Look around; it ain’t that bad
Life is far too short
To live by counting back the years
Go forward, don’t wish your time away
Release your lonely fears
I’m here for when you need me
Be your friend;Â someone to hold
So open up your heart to me
Let your anger now unfold
Let’s live a life; move forward
In a good way;Â feel so free
You are my strength;Â my inner rock
So please ...come back to me ..
