'Men have forgotten this truth,' said the fox. 'But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.'

Forget Me Not
My friend, never
Forget, forgotten me,
Forget and be forgotten.
Never forget
Our friendship,
Our relationship,
Our partnership.
Never forget
Our hope,
Our inspiration,
Our courage,
Our confidence.
Forget me not,
When we live separately,
When we out of sight,
When we out of mind,
When we out of sanity.
Forget yet remember me,
Forget yet forgive me,
Forget yet pray for me,
Forget yet call me.
Please forget me not.
Not to forget,
Your friend,
Your dream and vision,
Your ambition and success.
Forget me not,
Forget the No,
Forget the Maybe,
Forget the should be.
Think not to forget,
Think to remember,
Think to feel,
Think to say.
Forget, forgotten,
All bad things,
All bad deeds,
But forget me not.

Our Level Of Responsibility!
our level of responsibility
far deeper than our occasional
stabs at compassion, and truth...
when we sit down to eat, and eat
far more than we need, and throw
the leftovers out... we are
responsible fot the hungry!
when we go to sleep at night, in
houses too big and too plush, we
are responsible for the homeless...
when we drive our SUV's around for
no reason at all, burning excess
gas, we are responsible for the
oil spills...
when we vote people in office,
whose agenda is profit at all costs,
we are responsible for countries
invaded...
when we turn our backs and walk away,
or stick our heads in the sand, we are
responsible for the loss of human rights...
when we allow the banning of books, and
legislation against free speech, we are
responsible for ignorance, and allow
ourselves to be enslaved!
responsible, every thought, every intent,
every action!

I Haven't Forgotten
I haven't forgotten when I meet you first!
I haven't forgotten when I greet you last!
I haven't forgotten your pretty face!
I haven't forgotten your smile and grace!
I haven't forgotten how we started chatting!
I haven't forgotten when we started dating!
I haven't forgotten our last walk together!
I haven't forgotten how I became a loser!
I haven't forgotten how it became too late!
I haven't forgotten when I understood fate!
I haven't forgotten that summer's northwester!
I haven't forgotten and won't forget ever!

Believing in me
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i love you?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i care?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i adore you?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that im here?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i never want you to leave me?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i cant imagine a world with out you?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i forever want you here with me?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that i'll never forget you?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that the world is perfect when youre around?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that you make me smile with pride?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that you and i are in love, forever bound?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that my world with out you crumbles from inside?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that my world is forever changed?
Do you belive in me when i tell you that i care for nothing else?
Do you believe in me when i tell you that my love is never tamed?
Do you believe me when i do not believe in myself?

Please Don't Forget
Please don't forget me
I know I'm not smart
But please don't forget me
I know I'm not pretty
But please don't forget me
I know you have better things to do
But please don't forget me
I know you say you won't
But please don't forget me
I know I allways complan
But please don't forget me
I don't want to be forgotten
I don't want to be pushed away
I know I am asking alot
And I know you want to forget me
But you don't have to love me, hug me or even smile at me
But please don't forget me

If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem
If I forget thee, Jerusalem,
Then let my right be forgotten.
Let my right be forgotten, and my left remember.
Let my left remember, and your right close
And your mouth open near the gate.
I shall remember Jerusalem
And forget the forest -- my love will remember,
Will open her hair, will close my window,
will forget my right,
Will forget my left.
If the west wind does not come
I'll never forgive the walls,
Or the sea, or myself.
Should my right forget
My left shall forgive,
I shall forget all water,
I shall forget my mother.
If I forget thee, Jerusalem,
Let my blood be forgotten.
I shall touch your forehead,
Forget my own,
My voice change
For the second and last time
To the most terrible of voices --
Or silence.

If You Forget Me
If you forget me
Who ever you are?
It will mean nothing to me
Who will go on living
Having forgotten the purpose
To a life
That drags heavy footed
Through grey streets
If you forget me
Just remember,
I have already forgotten
You,
And if you remember this,
Please remind me,
So that I will stop posting you
A christmas card
Whoever you are,
We who are strangers
Who go on living
Because we have forgotten
The pointlessness to our lives
Or why we wear sensible shoes
At a certain age
Or why some eat cereal
While others go empty into the morning
Why where how?
If you forget me
Remember to remind me that,
I have already forgotten you
Then I promise to stop sending you a christmas card
Or wishing you a happy new year
And if I have forgotten that you who are living
Have died and are now dead,
Then forgive me for sending you all those post cards
Without a return to sender
I may have simply forgotten to read the small print
On the invite card
Or maybe it rained
or I had a cold
Or was too busy forgetting the day of the week
And the pointlessness to my existence
Which when forgotten
Along with you, my friend,
Is less bleak
Infact it is quite pleasant
Okay
So let's just forget the whole miserable affair, okay?

I'll Never Forget
Writer Dolly Parton
Copyright 1975
Sweeter than honey as soft as a sigh gentle as snowflakes but warm as July
This is the way I remember your kiss if I live forever I'll never forget
Misty as morning as blue as the sky reflections of heaven in your loving eyes
Eyes that said more than your words ever did and if I live forever I'll never
forget
If I live forever I'll never forget it's you that I wanted to share my life with
Do I still love you the answer is yes if I live forever I'll never forget
Two loving arms that I felt welcome in arms that I'd run to again and again
How do you erase sweet mem'ries you miss if I live forever I'll never forget
Sad circumstances that stood between us wouldn't let us share a precious sweet
love
Do you remember do you feel like this if I live forever I'll never forget
If I live forever...
Do you remember do you feel like this if I live forever I'll never forget

Forever Yellow Skies
Yellow sky
I can see you in the yellow sky
See you again
Ill see you again
In my dreams
Morning light
I remember morning light
Outside my door
Ill see you no more
In my dreams
Forever
Forever Ill be
Forever holding you
Responsible
Black and white
Its become so black and white
Its become so wrong
So insecure
Youre so insecure
Thats what you are
Forever
Forever Ill be
Forever holding you
Responsible...
