as i awaken
the bed shakes..*
its risen from its nightmares
the ceiling swarming with darkness
the sun is never risen
its always delusive
i embed myself in my mask
the make-up blocking the pours
aswell as the person underneath
the clown mask smiles back at me
a happy [fake] smile
i use to be so much more than this
i use to be real
i dream that i will awake, rise from underneath the crown of death
the tears smudge my eyes,
making them almost human
the make-up runs down my cheek
sliding its blooded texture.
my self-esteem gone along with the person i was
tears rolling
make-up lost
i see the freak underneath
the beautiful ugliness of normality
the tears of a clown are long gone
the paper tissues wipe away the plastic mask
and the clown face lays laughing alone.
the person iam lives once again
for what might be a minute
before the mask is re-applied
