Sometimes letting go is the right thing to do...
When I am not around anymore
Remember me,
Remember me with all the pretty sunsets you'll see
When the sky is blue, purple, orange and pink
Remember me when after the scorching summer it finally rains
When the scent of air is nothing but the 'Petrichor'
Remember me when you find a dried flower between the pages
Even when its rusty, crumbled and browned
Remember me, when you see a field of blossoms
don't forget to get some clicks for me
Remember me when you suddenly come across that old picture of mine
Where I am smiling and I'll hold that smile forever
Remember me, when you hear someone say a word I used a lot
When we used to talk for hours over phone calls
Remember me, when my name comes up in a group conversation
Hold on to the memories we shared
Remember me, when you find that favorite dish of mine
When I used to feed you and we relished together
Remember me, when you lay on the right side of the bed
When I could just easily keep my head on your chest
Remember me, as if I am still around you, as if I am still holding you, as if I am still longing for you.
Remember me as I remember you.
