What scares me about death is more than just how final it is. It's scary that after death the persons thoughts, ideas, jokes, quirks and personality cease to exist almost like it was never there...except for those few loved ones they leave behind.
The person's smile which carries a loaded message, that look which conveys more than a thousand words, the advice which masks the worry they feel for you, the laughter that reveals more about them than anything else - all gone...except in the memories of the few people who care enough to remember.
I care. I want to remember. I will never forget a single detail about you. Every word you said will remain etched in my memory. I promise to always carry you in my heart...till I die.
I will not take anyone I love for granted - you mean the world to me and I need you to know it while I can make it known to you.
