REMEMBER

Remember me when I am gone away
Gone far away into the silent land
When you can no more hold me by the hand...

Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay
Remember me when no m0re day by day...
You tell me of our future that you plann:d
Only remember me, you will understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray

Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve..
For it the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that 0nce I had...
Better by far you should forget and smile...
Than than you should remember and be sad...



by. Christina Georgiana Rossetti, 1830-1894
