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 more day by day, you tell me of our future that you planned; only remember me; you 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 if the darkness and corruption leave a vestige of the thoughts that once I had, better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad.
