The time has come for me to go <br />It's time now to move on <br />‘Tis the end of watching sunsets <br />And seeing morning's dawn. <br />Don't shed tears on my depart <br />Or mourn the death that's mine <br />Just merrily please celebrate <br />With eat and drink and wine <br />You and I shall meet again <br />At another time and place <br />And our union will be marked <br />By a familiar smiling face <br />When you speak of me until then <br />Don't glorify my name <br />Rather yet be honest <br />And keep my memory the same <br />As for now what you must do <br />Is keep on keeping on <br />Without dwelling upon the reasons <br />As to why it is I'm gone <br />Crying, mourning and dwelling <br />You see are so mundane <br />And only prevent my departure <br />From this material plane <br />So here I humbly ask <br />That you let my spirit to go free <br />By simply smiling inwardly <br />At the times you think of me<br /><br />Kim Hilliker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-you-think-of-me-2/
