&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 don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot;<br /> -Marilyn Monroe

I am sitting here
Looking up at the stars
Asking myself if you were worth it
Even though you gave me lots of scars

They are all pretty deep
Some are getting worse
I wish they would heal
So I could move on from this curse

No matter what I do
You push me away
But all I want
Is for you to stay

You had a sparkle
A twinkle in your eye
So magical no words would come out
Not even a sigh

But you have moved on
Like you never knew I was there
And the sad part is
I still care

&quot;I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater.&quot; -SN
