I can completely relate to this piece. I continued working closely with a former lover for some years before he left town and remarried, and it was quite the struggle at times. Thanks for sharing this.

Your pictures as usual are simply magnificent. And your poetry is beyond compare. I have no sixes to offer . I hope you add a chapter of kind wishes to "For Kathy"as she will be in the hospital for several more weeks. Your lovely pictures alone would brighten her day!
:-) Happy New Year to you! Karen

I would forget to forget you ~ it's hard to forget someone who has given you so much memory. Have you ever heard this quote? There is one thing about forgetting, do we ever forget someone we love?

    I think that if you love someone very much is hard to forget but with time the pain goes away.

    Thank you very much, my friend. Happy New Year --may it be prosperous, full of health and love.

Okay, you totally outdid yourself with this poem. Holy Cow!!! The title is perfect. "Forget to Forget you' and then the ending 'I would forget to forget you'. Your words are magical and then you add the artwork, it's absolutely perfect.

ooh cool - forget to forget you - love the title phrase

you start the second stanza with 'but'
shouldn't the fourth stanza also start with 'but'?
but it could be just me lol

a great free verse about longing...
thank you for sharing

The trouble is that when one tries to deliberately forget, the thoughts return time and again. Yet this powerful love demonstrates that despite the fact that it is not returned, she remembers and the love is so meaningful she forgets to do her best to forget what once was. Well written.

It's sort of a double negative but forgetting to forget is the narrator's way of surviving the impossible relationship. Even if it didn't work out, it still is important to remember what they once had.

    I know it's double negative but it's written on purpose for poetic sake.

    Thank you very much, Big Sister. Happy New Year --may it be prosperous, full of health and love. Blessings.

    Love you,
