Forget? <br />Ah, never! <br />Your eyes, your voice, your lips. <br />Those little ways of love, <br />Half-childish yet all-wise <br />That held me but a slave to you, <br />Will never loose their bonds. <br />The power to forget <br />Would Fate but yield to me. <br /> <br />Remember? <br />Ah, too well! <br />The hurt, the pain, the grief. <br />The wrack of nightly dreams, <br />The ruth of brooding days, <br />Have left a lesion in my soul <br />That only Heaven can heal. <br />Remembrance is the lot <br />That Fate does hold for me.<br /><br />Joseph Seamon Cotter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/remembrance-8/
