Advice to a Girl
by
Sara Teasdale
1884 - 1933

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

Beautiful poem with great wisdom shared
I absolutely love this poem! It finally explains the truth about love and trying to possess the object of your affection. The more you try to possess, you become the one
possessed by your own hand.d8s You become taken over by your desire to have and not your desire to love and to care
