Remember Me

Remember me,  
          As soon as I leave 
          When you see my shadow disappears
          Swallowed by the dark 
          Leaving no single sillage  

Remember me, 
          When your day is incomplete 
          And if you feel lonely 
          Think of my voice and my name 
          Softly cherish every memory  

Remember me, 
          'til you find someone again 
          To replace my vacancy 
          To fulfill the emptiness 
          And make you feel loved once more  

Remember me, 
          As long as you can do 
          And as you love someone new 
          Give yourself to him  
          And you can now forget me.

Hansteven, Congratulations on your awesome win. Thank you so much for supporting my contest. Stop by my blog "LAST CALL" if you like. ((( note from MEakaPD Thank you ALL for waiting and chilling, while I sat on the sideline. Since March 1st, I moved to the 4th largest city in the USA (by population.) One of the hardest decisions EVER-EVER!!! I will keep short on my visits until April 1st. After that, there's no holding me back LOL -unless God has other plans. Always & Forever ~LINDA~

Certainly, it may be sung. Like a magic sound with good reverberations reminding me of Anton Webern`s Passacaglia. Congrat.
