Remember me <br />But do not weep <br />As you approach <br />My own grave stone. <br /> <br />For once I lived <br />and though feared death <br />Still wrote this dirge <br />That swims your head. <br /> <br />And though I lay <br />Below your feet <br />I am so glad <br />That we could meet. <br /> <br />That I may speak <br />As dead men do <br />Though silently <br />Right next to you. <br /> <br />And so with these <br />My final words <br />I hope that you <br />Can tell the world <br /> <br />That I once lived <br />And thought and played <br />And worried of <br />My final days <br /> <br />And found no hope <br />And found no peace <br />So found no point <br />To just deceive <br /> <br />But rather say <br />That though I'm gone <br />I beg of you <br />To sing my song <br /> <br />So I may rest <br />Though not in peace <br />That someone does <br />Remember me.<br /><br />William Blake Beckett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/remember-me-147/
