Remember Me

What do you remember when you look at me? 
 Can you even say, objectively? 
 I'm sure it's not a symphony.
 A tranquil sea, or being free.
 I probably remind you more of anarchy... Of villainy...
 My memories consists of acidity, with a touch of futility...
 Perhaps scathing dishonesty.
 I'll remember you mostly fondly. 
 Not saintly, blandly, nor blissfully...
 And at the risk of me being a mere fallacy, all I ask is that you remember me...
