youths lease by Gavin M RoyWhen the lease of my youth
is to expie
a shadow cast upon the past
will drown out this fire
that breeds and burns inside.
Now I yearn to break this bond,
which I found on this ride,
which is invinvibly strong.
Oh when the lease of my youth
decides it shall exprie
I might as well be dead
and have forgotten of this fire
Oh when the lease of my youth
is iver and i am to move
you will find my legacy and then my misery
and youth will be subdued.
for in the lease of my youth
is all that burns my fire
and to end this gracious state
I will become my own martyr. 01/01/1992 Author's Note: I found an old chapbook from my freshman year of college and thought I would burden you all with it ;)
