One day, when my heartbeat comes to a halt
and blood cease flowing through my veins,
when my eyes fail to open
and I finally depart from this world,
remember me for the smiles I've passed on to you
when you were searching for a friendly face in the crowd,
for the words that have so gracefully left my fingertips
being a solace to the broken souls,
for the countless times I've been the reason for your laugh
when you've almost forgotten what happiness felt like,
for giving an ear when you had no one to listen to the thoughts and feelings swirling in your mind,
for the homes I've built in my heart for my loved ones.
Remember me for even the speck of kindness
I've shown towards you and
all the good times I've left behind.
Life is too short to hold grudges, so forgive me for all the times
I might've made the tears trickle down your cheeks and remember me for the days I've been the sunshine when it was too cloudy outside.
