Advice to a Girl
A poem by Sara Teasdale:
No one worth possessing
Can be quite possessed;
Lay that on your heart,
My young angry dear;
This truth, this hard and precious stone,
Lay it on your hot cheek,
Let it hide your tear.
Hold it like a crystal
When you are alone
And gaze in the depths of the icy stone.
Long, look long and you will be blessed:
No one worth possessing
Can be quite possessed.
***************
I think that line should be said to anyone and everyone entering a romantic relationship. Just a thought.

i think she was attempting to send a message to herself…letting her lovers know you can get hurt or vice vera…the harsh reality of it is nothing you want can easily just become yours
