Was Marilyn Monroe a Poetess and Writer?

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

― Oscar Wilde

I like how you match up Marilyn's lines with the likes of, oh, Oscar Wilde.

my love sleeps besides me—
in the faint light—I see his manly jaw
give way—and the mouth of his
boyhood returns
with a softness softer
its sensitiveness trembling
in stillness
his eyes must have look out
wonderously from the cave of the little
boy—when the things he did not understand—
he forgot

but will he look like this when he is dead
oh unbearable fact inevitable
yet sooner would I rather his love die
than/or him

- Marilyn Monroe
