Forget Poems

Premium MemberDon't Forget the Cream

Lately folks, my mind has been somewhat dusty,
I "think" I heard of some new kind of disease.
Plus, my cognition has been somewhat rusty,
I keep forgetting where I put my keys!

I'm late!, I'm late!, for a very important date,
But...I don't remember with who or where.
I can't explain why my brain makes me wait,
I just know sometimes,

The Autumn Times - Part 2

//See part 1// 

...I could never forget you.//

Not even if I tried. For, see, when the springtime comes again each year, and the leaves begin to grow once more, your face is all I see. Your lips as they smile, your eyes as they glisten, your sweet laughter bouncing off the tin rooftop, all of

Premium MemberWE MUST NOT FORGET

It’s great for America to savor our success in life…and the people who helped create them…
To remember our victories…and take time to celebrate them…

We are a country of the industrial revolution, 
free public schools, think of all the medical breakthroughs we’ve completed.
We landed people on the moon, were instrumental in the formation of Nato
and vital,

You can't forget what you can't destroy

Rip the sheets of comfort of their privileged bodies
Let the cold hit their skin
To feel the harsh reality of life 
Fed with safety and security
No longer will they be coddled by warmth
Whiteness will not save you
Your evil will be put to shame
Your secrets pushed into the spotlight 

Pandering will not be allowed
We are tired of

Premium MemberForget Me Not

Little Flower, scent of Spring
For me have you a song to sing?
I love you Lilac do you know?
There's room still for my heart to grow

I'll fertilize 'til you arrive
Then plant you there and pray you'll thrive
I'll give you tender love and care
And hope that you'll be happy there

But if it isn't meant to be
I hope

The Flash Before I Forget You

The tunnel is longer
than my or.g.as.m.

I hold my breath
for the flashing
of your face—

like exit light
slapping my eyes
when the black yawns open
and I am born
back into noise.

You never stayed
long enough
to settle in the shadows.
Just a glare.
A ghost caught
on glass.

Premium MemberOne I'll Never Forget

Another Friday by myself
I'll pull a memory off the shelf
And walk with it, it's one with you
Where we had coffee, just us two
We played that morning then had lunch
The Dimmick Inn, wait, was it brunch?
It doesn't matter, afterward
I drove back slow, it was inferred
That time would thus be short and sweet
Next to me in the

When You Leave, Don't Forget To Turn The Lights Off

When you leave, turn the lights off—
It matters not to me,
For I am the last subtraction
From the sum of humanity.

The stars have blinked their final light,
Planets turned to dust,
The galaxies collapsing inward—
Even silence starts to rust.

Religion is a dim memory,
A ghost caught in black holes,
A story written long ago
To comfort frightened souls.

There are no children

Premium Memberdid you forget a couple of crowns

pancake queen
corn dog princess
Mrs. Wheat
Sugar cane queen
All is well and good
But where is the Toilet Brush Princess
and the Dust Mop Queen?

I'll never forget

Vs 1
Your things are gone, You've moved away...
I only have myself to blame...
I call your number, but it's changed...
I can't get over, all of my shame


Bridge
Why can't you please forgive me?
I just can't live without you near me!


Chorus
I'll never forget, just how much we cared...
I'll never forget, all the love we shared...
I'll never

Premium MemberDon't Forget

There's no ill will
No wanting for revenge
I don't want her to hurt
Don't even want her to regret

I just want her to think
To remember now and then
Please don't forget
Don't lose the memory of my face

Remember how you felt
Not the love or chemistry
But remember being safe
Anchored in the storm

I don't want her to be sad
That would not

One Real Encounter And You'll Never Forget

Smile world things will be okay.
God is everywhere, everyday.
Set aside for Him a special time.
To focus on Him only with your mind.
Imagine Him there within your room.
Awareness of his presence should begin soon.
Raise your arms upward like a little child.
Wanting Daddy to hold you for a while.
When His presence moves close you'll know.
For me rivers

I no longer know Beauty

I
forget—
like how leaves forget their tree
once autumn called them free.
Moments slip and leave
an unsettling void
for dreams to flourish.
Uninvited, wearing
the mask of memory.

A fiction sung in earnest,
stitched in gray hours—
where dreams blend into truth.
A hushed whisper:
“Beauty is truth,”—but
I wouldn’t know 
if the echoes I call "mine"
ever rang—

I am built
of broken facts,
soft edits,
and pills that patch up
what

Short

Short meet
Yet such profound impact.
No amount of force I impose upon self
Seems enough to forget you.
At the end of the day
When I'm all alone,
One query still bothers me-
Is there still an “us"?

Never Forget

Follow you in my mind it's true
Concentration makes me blue
Always am i chained to regret
The loss of your beauty
An uncertain depth
I play in my mind a doll of you
Hug and squeeze like little girls do
And when I can see the unbleared world 
The loss I incurred is echoed and heard
My stillness does wrath unseen
My dream
