The line "The future kissed you, called you king, Did she? Deceiver!" is something I remembered from school, because it's so powerful. The Poem is "Brothers Who When the Sirens Roar" written by W H Auden in the 1930s. It's actually political and predicts the downfall of the wealthy upper class both incorrectly and pretentiously. The first stanza of another Auden poem "Lay Your Sleeping Head My Love" (Lullaby) is more romantic.
