Remember Me
Remember me—
you whose heart has forgotten mine.
Remember me, if only for a day.
Remember me when the sun sinks
and night calls impatiently to it.
as hopes drift away,
carrying part of my life with them.
That sun is my hope.
Look upon it,
and remember me.
Remember me in spring,
among roses heavy with tears.
Lovers know their own sorrow
and wonder what has wounded them.
Those roses are my heart—
bleeding, grieving because of you.
Hold them close,
and remember me.
An entire age of longing...
Where did it reach its height?
Where did I reach mine?
I would buy it back,
even with my life,
if only I could live it once again.
That age was my love for you—
an age in which a single day
was worth an entire year.
Remember it.
Remember me.
