CAMELOT FANTASIES

Last night watched Mes Doubtfire
Looking at it with different eyes
Not necessarily for entertainment purposes
Watching Robin and many parts of the movie
Translated to us with such powerful thoughts and images
Because Robin was showing his true pain.

Many parts throughout the movie his lines
Held truth for him.
He was struggling with his depression
He was putting on a smile, he was the clown for everyone
While deep inside he was dying from his depression.

He looked as though he was receiving some gratification
By making people laugh.

This very sensitive soul
Hid a very sad heart throughout his life
Plagued horribly by his own demons

Success for a while could replace his pain.
But it was those moments alone where truth hit him hard.

Looking at his tv debuts to his last films
His face marked all of his pain.
When younger there was hope

As he got older even when he smiled
The sadness poured from his eyes
And his lips
His mouth seemed sad
Even when he forced a smile.

Success helped for a time
Until he pulled off the bandage
Purgatory on earth
