If I should die, think only this of me
I am only me, that's all that I can be
Nothing more, nothing less
I embraced life, I loved, I laughed and cried
I'm not perfect I do have my faults
Remember me for my contradictions, me shyness and confidence
Courage, honesty and determination was everything to me
Remembrance of my weird and crazy self
As well as my caring and generous side will be hard to forget
I hope that those dear to me inherit a wealth of memories
and moments shared
Remember me for what I'm worth
My values and personality
Not by what I have said or done
