Memento Mori
I'm so scared you will forget me, I never let myself be known.
"Better to leave no memory, than by rejection be alone."
And to be known for all my sins, is a thought more than I can bare.
So I will smile my empty grins, and pretend I was never there.
If I could be remembered well, cause tender thoughts when should I leave,
To you my secrets I would tell, I could take comfort one would grieve.
When bells tolls after my battle, they shan't be deep and somber tone.
Just an empty metal rattle, to mark the time I spent alone.

I think this is someone lamenting that they never connected with people much in general, but it might be specifically love. No problems with the rhymes. There's a fixed syllable count per line, even by half-line, but there's no stress pattern. One instance of bare/bear confusion. Not a bad thought, though it's all pretty vague. I encounter that title occasionally, but I never remember what it means.
