by Christina Rosetti
Remember me when I am gone away
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned
Only you remember me ; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yes if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember do not grieve
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had
Better by far you should forget and smile
Then that you should remember and be sad.
