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 be 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. For if you always think of me, I will never be gone
