"Remember Me Not, My Dearest"
By: JaeeTee

Remember me not when I am away,
As Sampaguita’s scent fades day after day,
Let forgetfulness take me to fond memories,
Bury my unworthy love on the bosom of halcyon seas.

Remember me not when I bid goodbye,
Weep not on my grave my Dearest, please don’t cry,
You will hear my voice no more as time goes-by,
Put no sign of remorse on the haven where I lie.

Remember me not when my judgment comes,
Make a perfect sanctuary for the setting sun,
Let my repose lay on the evening calm;.
Caressed by the morning dew as my spirit’s gone.

Remember me not when the world
has no songs to sing,
As dust on the array is abruptly swept
by the falling rain;
Feel the magic thoughts that these
rhymes could ever bring;
Remember me not my Dearest,
remember me not for my memory
is not worth remembering.
