A career is wonderful, but you can&#039;t curl up with it on a cold night. <br /> Marilyn Monroe <br /> <br /> Fiction is the truth inside the lie. <br /> Stephen King <br /> No, it&#039;s not a very good story - its author was too busy listening to other voices to listen as closely as he should have to the one coming from inside. <br /> Stephen King

A friendship, brief; a shooting star.
A fragile thing, so dear-
Towards death; emblazoned, fizzled out
Upon a night, so clear.

With passing time, and in my mind
Some memories erase.
Within my thoughts, so suddenly-
I cannot see your face.

What once held dear, so quickly lost;
The twinkling of an eye.
Slowly let go, friendship now gone-
This final word- Goodbye.
