Fidelio Medina Jr.

When I'm 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 only remember the smile. Forget unkind words I have spoken; remember some good I have done. Forget that I ever had heartache and remember I've had loads of fun. Forget I've stumbled and blundered and sometimes fell by the way. Remember I have fought some hard battles and won, ere 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 shade of evening when the sun paints the sky in the west.-Stand for a few moments beside me and remember only my best.
