Heart, we will forget him!

by Emily Dickinson

Heart-shaped lock, tobacco label, 1887

　　Heart, we will forget him! You and I, tonight! 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!
