The Sorrowful Jester

"The Sorrowful Jester"

Born to make people laugh 
From now on, more effort will be required on your behalf 
Ignore feelings 
Make limericks 
Synthesize more funny rhymes 
Wipe the tears before anyone sees them 
Hide your sad face 
Wear your pefectly crafted vizard
Do not worry though 
If anyone notices the tears on your face, just laugh apace 
Pretend they're tears of laughter, tears that aren't bitter 
Patch everything up with a joke like it was an epithem 
You're the Jester after all 
You're good at it 
Never forget it 
Hide what's left of you, and smile 
If only they could cross the aisle 
If only they could solve the puzzle 
You mustn't let them find the child 
You cannot allow them to enter your fortress in solitude 
You shouldn't forget the last time you smiled 
Immutable expression makes for an immaculate deception

I know who you are!
