Remember me when i am gone away
Gone away to a memory land
When you can no more hold me by the hand
Nor I half turn to get yet turning stay
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned
Only remember me, please try to understand
It will be late then to counsel then or pray
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And after the words remember do not grieve
For if the darkness and so my love leave
A vestige of the thought that i once had
Better by far you forget me and smile
Than that you should REMEMBER and be sad
re-entry taken from circa high school
it was on the wall of the english class
