Why The Tears Of A Clown?


Why do clowns hide their tears?
Do they think that they can't show…?
The hurt, or the sadness inside them,
Do they think hiding it makes it go?
No, for the truth is this…
We all hurt, and pain and cry …
That's what we have tear ducts for,
To release the hurt and let it go by…

We don't have to pretend all is well,
When we feel like we're falling apart,
Because everyone has the right,
To have a hurting heart!
For at times throughout our lives,
We glitch, and hurt and pain,
So we are allowed to shed our tears,
Or we suffer more and have nothing to gain!

So when you're feeling a little sad,
Hurt or in deep pain,
Cry your tears, it's allowed,
So we can feel better once again!
If we have to cry an ocean of tears,
Then do so, for that's gives us release,
From the hurting in our life today,
And in doing that, it gives us peace!

So don't be the laughing clown,
For the tears of a clown are allowed too,
We need not hide the pain in us,
More, we let is out, as we all should do!

Why the tears of a clown?
