Forget

forget the loss,
the inevitable
downward slope
that follows.
forget the cold detachment,
the calls no longer   made.
 
forget the words
holding the bridge of friendship
together.
 
 
forget all that warmed
the cold parts
of a heart forgotten.
 
forget me
and i’ll forget you…
in the blink of and eye
in the bend of a  smile,
lets be forgotten and gone.

I like this, the use of repetition makes in read better . I do question its honesty, forgetting is not so easy. Or is that irony? cheers, Jess
