Tears,
they fall slowly.
Dripping on my paper,
sliding down my face.
My make up running,
tears freezing on my face,
from the cold.
As I sit here,
I think about you.
Oh what would I do
without you?
The thought of it,
scares me to death.
And this fear,
though it may seem irrational,
is the cause of my
tears.

&quot;I&#039;m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;A wise girl kisses but doesn&#039;t love, listens but doesn&#039;t believe, and leaves before she is left.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe<br /> &quot;I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Who said nights were for sleep?&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe

&quot;Too often we lose sight of life&#039;s simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. It only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother@#?!&amp;* upside the head. &quot;
