ADVICE TO A YOUNG GIRL 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

    Love the color combo, Grace. Yellow really pops against your skin! Hope you're having a great week, hun!
