Smile Boy, It's Sunrise: Robin Williams

If only you knew how much you are missed. Your movies left an impact on every single person and we are grateful for that. 

Because of you, we know that our inner demons can do terrible things to us, but only if we let them. You fought for so long, showing us the man we knew and still love. 

You also taught us that people can have a side to them that we'd never imagine. From watching your phenomenal films, we would have never pictured you as a depressed person who would one day commit suicide. 

The words you spoke impacted us so much. All the way from "poetry, beauty, romance love...these are what we stay alive for" to "smile boy, it's sunrise", your exiting film words. 

You filled millions of people with joy and heart-felt life lessons. You are the definition of impactful. 

Robin Williams, you are truly missed.

A New Person

Everyday I live, I become a new person. 

Whether it is as simple as a new thought on life, a new haircut, or a different meal. 

Even the smallest changes can shape and turn us into a different person.

The Horrible Possibilities: Pompeii

Who knew one mountain of rock could harm so many people. To the point where their bodies were plastered into horrifying shapes and preserved for the people of the future to stumble upon. How awful it must have been. Who knew the earth was capable of that.

If Only You Knew: Van Gogh

If only you knew about the thousands of people you've inspired, the various people who are awed by your work, and the vast amount of people who have said your name like you're the hero of art. 

You would be amazed at the people who stand in front of your art and attempt to draw the beauty left on your canvas.

Everything

She thought of him as everything, 

His music made her so happy, 

She went to the concerts because of him, 

Singing his songs, hoping they'd meet. 

She wished she stood out in the crowd, 

But not amongst everyone else. 

He thought of his fans as everything, 

They're the reason he's here, 

He performed concerts, 

They would scream his name all at once. 

He would never find the right one,

But he still hoped.

Fantasy

Everyone needs a little bit of fantasy to get through each day;

few admit it to the world.

I Want to Travel

I want to travel, 

Learn things about places I've never been to.

Go to Paris and climb the Eiffel Tower, 

Go surfing in California, 

Take a cruise to Alaska, 

and learn to belly dance in India. 

I want to travel the world and live my life.
