Promise Me

Promise Me
January 17, 2004

I need you to focus,
I need you to try,
To remember my smile,
After I die.
Promise me.

I cried on Christmas,
And I died on New Year's Eve.
I still cant believe,
But you've got to promise me.

Thumbing through the pages of this blank book,
The words that I'm feeling,
Are appearring and took.
To the best seller list in my own opinion,
But it matters more to see,
That you promise me.

What I ought not let become a thought,
Is the truth you sought.
It's better for me I ignore the possibility,
And hold your hand as you promise me.

I want to be a somebody, anybody.
But I'm forever blue,
And that means I'm holding back from you.
One more thing to let worry in my mind,
But I need,
A promise from you.

Promise me you'll always see,
What I wanted to be.
And not what I became,
Can you do that for me?
Please?
I don't want to be remembered,
As what I have become.
I want my stories to be told,
And your recollections a good thing.

Promise me you won't forget,
And not remember what I regret.

Promise me you'll visit near,
A thought, a smile, and a tear.

Promise me you'll always see.
See what you did for me,
Please don't think I didn't care,
I appreciate that you were there.

And lastly,
Promise me,
You'll take care of yourself,
Knowing if I had the choice,
I'd be there with a soothing voice,
Because I cannot bare to see you in pain,
But since I cannot sit with you,
And make it go away,
It's your turn now to hear me there,
When no one else seemed to care.

I promise I'll never forget you,
Keep me alive in your memory,
In your future, I want a part.
Promise me a place in your heart.

Truly a stunning and great poem. I think I loved every line. This was just perfect.... Making me really sappy though... Very nice.
