Inside Frown

You might think that I'm happy
All of the time
But inside my smile
Is upside down
Otherwise, you wouldn't 
Want me around
If all you ever saw
Was a continuous frown
I guess that's why
I'm always clowning around
Not wanting others to see
Me feeling down
It's the only way I can think
To keep you around
On the outside a smile
On the inside a frown

O Mike, a brilliant poem but I certainly hope it isn't true. You are an amazing poet and caring man. Line xx
