REMEMBER NOW FOR TOMMORROW'S SAKE
In my fallen estate i am mocked,
I am disgraced and cast,
Why am I treated so,
Is it because I have no beauty or enchantment
Or I lack good clothes or perfume worn,
Nonetheless I shall not remain like this forever,
Mock me no more for i shall rise,
And i shall with vengeance,
To be re-crowned with my lost glory,
And now you will come to me,
Claiming to be a friend even when you were a foe,
Thus in my exalted state I shall only look down upon you and ponder,
Why judge the book by its cover?
But for you my friends who stood by me even when it seemed i was hopeless,
You knew I would rise again,
You never did despair,
Here is a toast for time and a time for remembrance,
For I was only gold in its impure form.
