Remember Me

Submitted on Aug 31, 2026 by KatieAdsila

What will you remember when I'm no longer here?
What footprints did I leave on your soul
In what kind of memories will I appear
These are things beyond my control

But I think of this often and I wonder why
Why our lives must end at all
Life is so precious you cannot buy
one more minute from the clock on the wall

We're all here for a reason we may not know
The purposes that we may fulfill
What kinds of seeds do I unknowingly sow
Are they a pain to you or a thrill?

For better or worse we all leave a mark
On every life around us can't you see
I don't want your memory of me to be dark
So a better person shall I strive to be

I want to bring a smile to your face
When my memory passes by
I hope that joy will fill the space
That I left when I said goodbye

We're only here for a short while
So every moment matters most
So live your life in such a style
family remembers a lovely host

What final impression shall I leave behind
this is what matters most to me
What kind of memories will you find
When I'm no longer here to be

I want you to know I did my best
I loved you with all of my soul
May I ask a favor at my behest
Please forgive what I couldn't control

What will you remember when I'm not there
What footprints did I leave on your heart
I'll still be with you just in the air
From your side I shall never part
