My Lost Youth

After our last project Beanpole asked me to send him a couple quotes and lines of poetry that spoke to me which he would then use for inspiration. This is the first in the series.

Got introduced to this stanza in this scene from In The Bedroom.

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 cheek,
 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
