The eternal smile fascinates me
And reminds me of life’s ecstasy
The enchanting smile & mesmerizing glow
That faces puts up for a great show
It’ll fall and wound itself
But that face will never tell its pain
That painted smile will hide it all
Audience’s clap and laugh is all he gain
Only if they looked close enough
Into his soul through its eyes
The tear it hides, the sting it holds
But they are only spectators
They neither will see nor will feel
The soreness of his heart
The intention is to entertain
To make them laugh on jokes & clap on tricks
And not to share its sorrow
It’s a replica of life & living
Teaching us how to survive
Be an audience and look around
Let go of all the grief you may have
Merely observe the joy it holds
Be that face to an bystander
Which holds that
charming smile
While struggling through life’s ache…
