when i am dead, my dearest (christina georgina rossetti)
when i am dead, my dearest, sing no sad songs for me; plant thou no roses at my head, nor shady cypress tree; be the green grass above me with showers and dewdrops wet; and if thou wilt, remember, and if thou wilt,forget. i shall not see the shadows, i shall not feel the rain; i shall not hear the nightingale sing on as if in pain; and dreaming through the twilight that doth not rise nor set, haply i may remember, and haply may forget
