Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m selfish, impatient, and insecure. I make mistakes. I am out of control and at times, hard to handle. But if you can&rsquo;t handle me at my worst, then you don&rsquo;t deserve me at my best.&rdquo;<br /> - Marilyn Monroe

Oh dear God, you've come back,
Like the suction of an old vac.
Sucking the life right out of me,
When all I want is to be free.
You drain me of my happiness,
Make me feel so depressed.
All I did is cry for you,
'Cause you were all I once knew.
Now I'm happy and you want me back,
But I'm done, so hit the road Jack.

This was inspired by some feelings that, after a long time, I finally sorted out and decided to move on.
