Why do we hurt so badly when celebrities die?
Give me a few descriptive reasons why, as well as the celebrity death that impacted you the most and how it changed your view, if so.

Robin Williams

I know most of your jokes by heart.

I’ve even said them in your voice.

I’ve seen you in movies, in stand up - you’re art!

But why did you make that choice?

It is selfish of me to ask that you stay.

When you just wanted to go.

I had hoped to see you perform someday

Because you put on quite a show.

How can a man spread such joy,

Yet have such darkness in his brain?

You said it’s been there since you were a boy.

Was ending it, less pain?

Thank you for the laughs and making me smile,

When I’m sad I think - let’s just go another mile!
