Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
(...)
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
(...)
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
[Christina Rossetti]
