#rememberme
do you remember, the day we first met, you wore a stubborn face, do you remember, how we would talk and joke, we were inseperable, do you remember when i held your hand as tears streamed past your face, eyes filled with grief, do you remember when you told me that nothing will bring us apart? i laughed, we were so young, oh but only if you, r  e m e m b e r e d but you do remember, glowing eyes, and a faint smile, an extended hand, long evenings by the pool, echoing laughs, but you do remember, what should have been a happy memory, ended so tragically, when you should have been, blowing out the candles, you were paying your respects, at my funeral do you remember, as i took one last breath, and i told you that this wasn't, the end did i not tell you, that i would come back? i've been through this before, but this time it's not the same, this time i can't let go you've changed, but not your eyes, you've changed, and it breaks my heart, but when the world forgot, when i became just a name, you remembered. maybe in another lifetime, if only i had been lucky in this life, you could have been mine, f o r e v e r

do you remember?
if the love starts to fade... well, that’s true. if I get really old, people will start to forget me. and I don’t know actually. to be honest, I want to be someone who is remembered. who puts out a good influence and stays in their memories. being popular isn’t really that important I just want to be someone who is remembered

if the love you receive starts to shrink again. how would you feel?
your letters, written to coax an empty heart. an illusion written with dying lead, begging to fade away. it is still beautiful, marching in formation on the loose leaf paper towards the end. your signature, which stands to be the only thing left true. I keep it, a reminder how lies are beautiful in your handwriting.

your handwriting
‪No matter how it ends, I want you to remember the good things that we used to have. Those were ours; are still ours to be remembered.

Ours
Something for you to remember me by, Maybe you’ll look at it everyday, Maybe you’ll store it away, Maybe someday you stumble across this, And maybe you’ll reminisce That there was one a ‘BAE’.

Something for you to remember me by.
By the break of dawn tomorrow You will live in fray Due to the fact that I won’t be here, I know that you will fear What you hear, Your son, friend, love Flying with the dove of death, I feel as if I don’t make you happy Then what’s the point of being here, If I can’t make you proud Then what’s the point of being around When the clock strikes midnight, You will see a big fright, Me just hanging there, My body so violently bare, This note to you Is made because I couldn’t do much, I feel like I have failed you, As the tears come running down your face, As you are in the dark hole of depression, Just think about all of the good times that we’ve had All the laughs and smiles, Just remember the memories that we’ve made together, Remember the smiles we put on people’s faces Remember the days that were so cold And when I walked in that room The day became warm, Remember me for me!

Midnight Fright
My dear heart why are you aching? Don't withdraw from me Tormented while sleeping Emptiness scares me My mourning mist Unknown grief Veined fist Oblivious thief Dear Heart, we're inseparable But you're being unfavorable I think we should part I'll cease to breathe while you reach your dead-end

This Heart
do not attend my funeral, many moons from now, for i want you to know me for the times we had when i was laughing and dancing around our kitchen table, not for how you'd watched me get put into the ground. i want you to throw my ashes to the wind, letting them waft as freely as they wish to every nook and cranny of this earth. that way, when i am gone, i will be everywhere, and you can always have that dimpled smile playing at your lips wherever you go with the memories of us and all that we had.

my ashes
My voice, It cannot be silenced I will write, I will sing, I will do anything to set me apart From what I'm "Supposed to be" Because normal is boring. I don't want to be, I refuse to be another face in the crowd, I want to touch people with my actions, With my words. When I die I don't want to be 6 feet under ground With a face nobody will remember And no difference made.

When I die
It's been a while Since I've sat down for this long Just to write All the words I can write They call it a stream of consciousness But I call it a stream of truth It's a stream to remember As it glosses over your skin Maybe this truth Will stick around A bit longer than the sunlight A bit longer than the nightlight I don't want my writing to go away I don't want my writing to be forgotten I want my writing to stay I want it to be remembered A writer only ever wants to stay That is the mark of a great writer It's not that hard, to write for a long time It's pretty hard, for that long time of work to stick around But don't worry It's just a stream of consciousness It's not a hard thing to do So we will just keep typing and praying for hamlet To come rolling off our fingers

Centuries
I'm an outsider Looking inside I'm telling the window To close the blinds And def my ears And numb my nerves And dry my voice So I won't be heard. Breathe, my little darling soul Drop defenses, just come home My little darling soul Spoil it for me, when do I go? I'm growing sick here I should just leave I'm held down by Only me Breathe, my little darling soul Drop defenses, just come home My little darling soul Spoil it for me, when do I go? The reason I stay here Why I won't leave I wanna be your back up plan Because someday you'll remember me.

My little darling soul
Some nights the memories still take over. Some nights you are still the only thing I want to think about. So I retreat to shut off the outside world. I bury myself in those old emotions. I bury myself in those memories. I want to remember them all every insignificant detail. I want to remember the faint scent of your hair thrown into the air as you rested your head down on my shoulder. but I can't and that bothers me.

I want to remember
I am in a disoriented dream. too young to know, twenty years have passed almost two years and you were there or almost near. its because i'm confused or i don't understand-- my being in yours why the moon shines so bright and I exist this certain way. but you took me to a place inside four small walls, one small space, a tub, a mirror one bed, near the hills of San Gabriel and the concrete We sat in a tree and jumped a fence but emotions ran too high and I never added up quite right in your mind-- My words spoiled the truth and they stained the trust they weaved together anger and spilled tears We wanted and tried so hard for love, I relied on you you relied on me yin and yang we sat, interconnected yet opposing each other our energies combining and combating We sipped a bottle of sky in the friendly El Monte I left your side, I've left your side too many times.. but you came back pounding on the door of the Scenic , your there and I never want to let go again and your body feels perfect next to mine never wanting to leave that bed wanting to drift back to sleep in your arms but we leave this place, The Scenic becomes a memory and now thats all thats left. hoping you might still remember me.
