The promise of all
Of who, wherefore art thou
A macrocosm 
Of possibility
A smile to turn 
And shake foundations 

With discord and deceit 
Thrown away
As if the promise
Were nothing 
But an empty box

How I do wish 
For you to grace 
My world again

The promise of all
A glittering thing
To envy and need
