I have to say, this poem felt different than the other heartbreaking poems. It sounded stronger, as if the writer has figured out something. The vulnerability isn't there. It's a stronger woman writing and reciting this. Great job. Gretchen

Stunning free verse poem, Gypsy. Using "I Forgot" throughout your poem, you conveyed the sadness, anger, and hurt of a person left feeling used, angry, and vulnerable.
Stunning in word and presentation.
Best wishes,
Mary

Another fine poem, Gypsy-----and the pain of a break up can be, and often is, the worst emotional pain and feels exactly as you've so described; there's nothing to ease it but the passage of time

I expect you will never forget such an encounter as this in reality and I know how this can feel, a very emotional post, we never really recover from a love that was cruel, love Dolly x x x

The repetition says everything here. So many times we catch ourselves in moments of the past, only to be crushingly brought back to the present. Thanks for sharing.

I like your free verse poem- good picture presentation- write flows well - like the breaks between - like pauses between thoughts - remembering- cool- suggest- 'not even in dreams- "you can commit-" change to ' can you' other option 'can't' - see what you think- - Good Job - AP

I found the author's words sad, upsetting cruel. I liked how this author
used the words "I forgot" before each stanza as it intensifies the theme
of these words. The artwork is perfect and goes well with these words.
Hi Gypsy, hope you are doing well - have a good night!....Maria

This was a special free verse, Gypsy. 'I Forgot' is a unique title. You were able to use ' I Forgot ' in many ways that reported frustration and anger. The dual picture presented another way to fool us. Very well done and greatly enjoyed. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

This poem brought tears, that's a good thing because it shows you touched this reader. I think poems are supposed to do that. Thank you for sharing this emotional poem.
