Heart, we will forget him!

by Emily Dickinson · (no date)
Published 01/07/1880

      You and I, to-night!

You may forget the warmth he gave,

      I will forget the light.


When you have done, pray tell me,

      That I my thoughts may dim;

Haste! lest while you 're lagging,

      I may remember him!
