A place where no one likes to be

There is a place where no one likes to be
a wide smile yet you may see
pleasing the people
as they walk past him in the alley

His smiles die down
so did his strength and urge to live
as-though nothing is real
he entered a shell 

The art of masking, he mastered,
but there was only one
who saw him at his best and worst
that was the string that was pricking

An oath, he took , to celebrate, to laugh
only once he had his revival
as the clock ticks, seasons change
he awaits for his sunshine

  1. He was full, the lid was closed
    strength was shown, not a drop poured

    The bottle was tight, withstood the fight
    Little he knew, this would end his flight

    Dont deny , let it loose
    You are not the only one
    Walking in those shoes

    Cry it out , let it burst
    You need to Shout, you know you must

    The Bottle cracked , feeling smacked
    Feeling dried , keeping his pride

    Then there was space, new colors raced
    Mask was gone , this was prone

    Its up and down , its okay to frown
    One day you need to wear the crown

    Days passed, hours drowned,
    Its time to feel proud

    The sun shined bright
    The frowns turned light
    The faces grew wide

    There it was, his SUNSHINE
