Remember Me Not

Remember me not as my picture shows Sharing instead my poems no one else knows Remember me not by my gentle smile It's not what made my life worthwhile Remember me not by my life exposed Instead by memories my words imposed Remember me not by projects left undone Busy changing the life of someone Remember me not by looking for my faults Instead that my songs made a broken heart waltz Remember me not of my accomplishments Your love is my greatest of compliments Remember me not of those nights I cried For those were days that I really tried Remember me not of those times we fought Respect is solace sought Remember me not as any other To all the world I was a mother Remember me not as a Legend my friend Legacy of a Poet lives within
