I think that the poem you may be looking for is the one I posted a number of years ago.


Now that I am dead cry for me a little
think of me sometimes.
But not too much.
Remember me now and again as I was in life,
at some moment when it is pleasant to recall.
But not for long.
Leave me in peace, and I shall leave you in peace.
And while you live let your thoughts be with the living.

The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!
