For Robin Williams

You made hundreds of million people laughed The world thought you're durable and tough Your comedy was a source of joy and happiness Yet no one bothered to cheer you up from loneliness You were a brilliant star that shine so bright The fuel you burned was your very own life You tried to show us the funny side of the world But the pains and sufferings you didn't told Because this world is cruel and never truly cared Paid you lip service only when you disappeared Though there are a few who truly mourned Grateful for the funny things you've shown The sufferings you went though no one can guess Hoping the pains you felt are now erased Wherever you are may you have peace Thank you for the laughter and memories By : Jun Abines www.junabinespoems.blogspot.com
