Marilyn

Marilyn, Little Girl Lost. . Little girl lost who never grew up burdened throughout her short life by a lack of her Mothers love. Thrown into the limelight beauty made her a star loved by everyone but never felt good enough so insecure Longed for a family always searching for true love. She became a pin-up and every man's dream because of her alluring beauty femininity and sensuality hiding the real person inside and everything she aspired to be. But the hurting child inside would not set her free. Always feeling lonely felt uneasy in crowds so misunderstood even though her intentions were good Two different people Norma Jean who no one wanted to know and Marilyn who everyone wanted to know a product ans manikin her real self and dreams denied with her finger constantly on the self destruct button finally it got too much But even now our hearts are touched and they'll always be a place for Marilyn in our heats. Quote~ ''Help me! Help me !'' life is getting closer and all I want to do is die. ~ Marilyn Monroe. ''She has become more than an icon'' She has become apart of our psyche. . ~ Peter Dome.

Oh the beautiful Marilyn, although she’s gone many years now, men of all raises are still enchanted by her sensual beauty... Lol! A wonderful tribute to our queen of beauty. I enjoyed it, thanks, Pete, for sharing.
