"My Lost Youth" I remember the gleams and glooms that dart Across the schoolboy's brain; Tthw song and the silence in the heart, That in part Are longings wild and vain. And the voice of that fitful song Sings on, and is never still: "A boy's will is thw wind's will, And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts." There are things of which I may not speak; There are dreams that cannot die; There are thoughts that make the strong heart weak, And bring a pallor into the creek, And a mist before the eye, And the words of that fatal song Come over me like a chill: "A boy's will is the wind's will, And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts." -- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
