Juggling tears in the air

Contributed by In_a_While on Wednesday, 8th June 2005 @ 12:21:10 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



we set up our sins, like hearts under pins
and sweat behind masks of despair
all the dark frowns, on orange coloured clowns
are from juggling they're tears in the air

the horses are black, leading clouds to the back
of my house where i was a child
i stood on a ball, throwing hate to the wall
then wondering why pain felt so mild

i swallowed my sorrow, like old meat tomorrow
but now i like painting my soul
the colours are bright, despite the dark night
how else would i feel whole...

good poem...why do we hide our emotions? why smile for the people we see everyday when really we're falling apart?

that was very well written the imagery was very good and using clowns for a metaphor was a good choice
