Just Remember Me

 

When you carve my name

Into that hard marble wall,

Please don’t let my name ever be

A name that you can’t recall.

Just remember me

A man whose heart was true,

A man who proudly wore

His badge and the blue.

Just remember the daddy

Of now a fatherless boy,

A gentle son

A mother’s pride and joy.

The loving man

Who held his wife under a moonlit sky,

A strong man

Who knew how to cry.

Please don’t let my name

Die with me too,

And just remember

I was proud to wear the blue.
