This poem was included in the original 1915 edition.

MY life's blossom might have bloomed on all sides
Save for a bitter wind which stunted my petals
On the side of me which you in the village could see.
From the dust I lift a voice of protest:
My flowering side you never saw!
Ye living ones, ye are fools indeed
Who do not know the ways of the wind
And the unseen forces
That govern the processes of life.

it's a very good monologue

I had to study it for my theatre class

she's so opposite from my personality

but still fun to play.
