Promise

IN OTHER WORDS, I CAME TO YOU
NOT OF MY OWN WILL
BUT TO EVERYONE WHO CONCEIVED MY BELIEFS.
TAKE NO GLOOM TO MY DECEIT 
DEEP IS MY INTENT, YET NOT FOR EVERYONE
THE VAIL OF MY BEAUTY RESIDES IN THE REALITY OF MY TRUTH
 "YET SO FEW"
CURDLED IN THE WEB OF MY DECEPTION IS THE TWIST OF MY TRUTH
FOR MY FAULTS ARE NONE YET SO VISIBLE
TO THE ONE WHO IS OUTSPOKEN DRIPS MY VIRTUE IN FILT.
MY WORDS HAVE NO REDEMPTION, YET THEY MADE NO PROMISE.
