Forget Me Not
If I leave this place
Before you're ready for me to go
Remember my smile
How it glowed like a rainbow
Remember my heart
The way I loved hard and strong
I loved each and every one of you
Even though I felt I didn't belong
Remember my faith
I'll be in very good hands
I always went to God
Throughout life's tough demands
Remember my laugh
I should have laughed everyday
Know that it heals the soul
And keeps the sadness away
Remember my tears
Oh, I cried a great deal
Whether happy or sad
Very emotional I would often feel
Remember my intuition
When no one else had a clue
Somehow I would often feel things
But didn't always know who
Remember my voice
Very quiet and polite
Now just imagine me saying
That I'm gonna be alright
And to my husband and children
That I thoughtlessly left behind
Keep your memory of me happy
And tucked away in the back of your mind
Bring me out when you need me
So my memory can comfort you
And if all else fails
Just remember that I love you!
