A poem for death

When im gone

When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile
Just forget if you can that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile

Forget unkind words I have spoken
Remember some good I have done
Forget that I ever had a heart ache
And remember I've had loads of fun

Forget that I have stumbled and blundered
And sometimes fell by the way
Remember I have fought
Some hard battles and won
The close of the day

Then forget to grieve for my going
I would not have you sad for a day
But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay

And come in the evening
When the man paints the sky in the wind
Stand for a few moments beside me
And only remember my best
