(This was inspired by a deep, enlightening conversation with my partner about immortality. It rose a question within me but I never had the courage to ask out loud: "Would you forget me?" He said he'd take the chance to be immortal if it were given, all for the sake of knowledge, but I said I'd rather just die once I've lived a full life. What would you guys do? Anyway, here's the poem! First rhyming one I've written in a while! Please enjoy~)
I won't ask you to promise me
That you'll never move on
Or that you won't love someone new
Whenever I am goneI won't ask you to think of me
With every living breath
To waste all your precious thoughts and words
Or live mourning my deathI won't ask you to change your mind
And lose your only chance
To seek out everything you've dreamed
And intellectually advanceI won't ask you to love me still
'Till the days the world has died
I'm happy knowing I was ever there
Right by your side.
I only ask that you remember me fondly,
All our good memories and cheer
And that even if we never meet again,
You may always find me here → ❤
