When I say goodbye

Do not cry for me 
for I'm not there to wipe your tears 
Do not long for me 
for I cannot hold you in my arms 
Do not call my name 
for I cannot answer you anymore 
Do not wait for me 
for I shall never return 

But please, do smile and laugh for me 
for I can see your pretty face 
and do remember me 
for I shall be alive in your memories

The last two lines are the essence of your poem. . A person can only truly leave us when people stop remembering him / her. . A really good write :)
