Listen to poem:

Remember Me

[Intro] 

I miss you mama...

[Verse1:]
In this  cold weather...
I read your last letter...
It burns like a cold cold ember...
There's nothing here, but ghostly whispers

My heart has become an empty chamber.

[Pre-Chorus ]
It says "dearest daughter"
"Cold days, don't last forever “
I know it’s getting cold outside
But let my love, keep you warm inside

[Chorus]
Darling please, 
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Darling please, 
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Even in the, coldest weather
Remember me.

[Verse 2]
Kiss your brother, goodnight for me (mh, mh, mh)
He’s too young, to understand...
Inside here, is my photograph... 
Keep it close, within your heart..

[Pre - Chorus]
And let the words of this letter
Be a fire, to warm your heart
In the, coldest weather 

(mh, mh, mh)

[Chorus]
Darling please, 
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Darling please, 
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Even in the, coldest weather
Remember me.

[Bridge]
We had such perfect plans
And so much laughter ...(mh, mh, mh)
But these bedside pans,
And these doctors pens
This cancers hand,
Cancelled every plan...

[Pre- Chorus]
Be the strongest that you can be (mh, mh, mh)
Don't you shed a single tear please...(mh, mh, mh)
We will meet, in heavens rest

[Final Chorus]
Darling please, (mh, mh, mh)
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Darling please, 
Remember me. (mh, mh, mh)
Even in the, coldest weather

Remember me. 
[outro]

Remember me.

mmmh..., mmmh...

Remember me.

Cancer is cruel and your beautiful song though sad shares the silver lining of inspiration for this song. I enjoyed it and pray for you if it is truth. Many in my family have had cancer and all have suffered. Stay strong if this is true!
