Gr8 poem. Yes, self-introspection is important. They are certain things which we think make us happy, but deep down even we know that we need something else. I sense extreme sorrow in these lines.10+

A poem of great wisdom to understand the bitterness and sweetness of life written narrated at your age is moving.'The gladness i now feel I shall keep forever' Store it away just in case you have to or, falsely given life's bitterness again. I'[m certain, gladness is obliged to take over.
