the movie "Possession" might be loosely based on her life.
Remember
Christina Rossetti (1830 - 1894)
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
思念
請思念我當我遠走,
去那片遙遠的靜土;
當你不能再把我的手握住,
我也不能選擇去留。
請思念我當你不再日複一日
講著心中我們的未來:
隻要思念我就好;你明白
忠告和祈禱已是太遲。
即使有一刻你把我遺忘
再又思念, 不要悲歎:
因為假如腐爛和黑暗
讓我的心思隻留殘跡,
你該忘掉我而去歡暢
總好過沉於思念和悲戚。
