Forget -Me-Not

Today and tonight before the General Relief Society session, I was thinking again about how I tend to be a slightly "forgotten" person. Somehow I seem to be overlooked more than it seems others. My sister says it's just me but in a conversation with Kirsti a few weeks ago I was able to quite adequately prove that I am often overlooked. She couldn't disagree why I would feel that and have that concern.
Anyway the talk tonight by Elder Uchtdorf was fantastic of course about the things we should remember in life.
But as I thought about those flowers, I was thinking this:

Forget - me - Not when I go away.
will you remember me another day.
I may not always be here but I hope I left a mark.
I tried to show you love in many ways.
My intentions were good though they may have been misunderstood.
Forget me not as I pass by your way.

If my path moves another direction will you ever stop to wonder where I went?
Will I be forgotten as the sands of time in your life?
Have I done any good in your life?

If I go to Heaven tomorrow forget me not.
Know that I cared and I tried to make the world a better place.
I constantly hoped for happiness, beauty and joy.
I hoped for new friends, for sunrises and sunsets.
My hope is that you will forget me not.
