This was written following the passing of the actor,Robin Williams.
'The Dying of the Light' The sorrow of the moment, The breaking of the spirit that struggles The loneliness of being alone, Within the circles of your mind The social being who longs for answers, The craving to accept the limitations The cruelties of human indifference, The longing to unwind Where are the answers to existence? The meaning in being? The misunderstood, The torture of our time No answers to the questions, No talent can suffice The mountains of doubt, The price for humankind ©Mary Cecil
