I'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't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.<br /> -Marilyn Monroe


Happiness

The mask that covers

Her pain

Her sadness

Everything


As she giggles

Smiles

Jokes

Along with the others

While holding

Up the mask


She lets it down at night

And the sadness she holds

In her chest

Comes out

with a silent ache

No tears come

But white knuckles do

As she wonders

Is life really worth it
