Remember
Me
To the living, I am
gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never
return,
To the angry, I was
cheated,
But to the happy, I am at
peace,
And to the faithful, I have
never left.
I cannot
speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be
seen, but I can be heard.
So as you
stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea-
As you look upon a flower and admire its
simplicity-
Remember
me.
Remember me in your
heart:
Your thoughts, and your
memories,
Of the times we
loved,
The times we
cried,
The times we
fought,
The times we
laughed.
