A Legend

I really do see Marilyn as a person who is a legend in her own time
She is beauty and glamore and that isn't a crime,

There was a lot of jealousy that surrounded her
But, most of the time it was all such a blurr,

Her life became much like a bad dream
Never knowing when or where she just might scream,

Marilyn to me was such a mystery
She never realized that she would make history,

Only she herself knows what is true and false
At 36 years of age she was gone and it was such a loss,

I hope she is happy where ever she may be
She was always so fragile that we just didn't see.
