YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN by ANGELA MORGAN

First Line: THERE'S A HURT IN THE HEART OF THE NIGHT
Last Line: THOUGH YOURS HAS FORGOTTEN ME!
Subject(s): FORGETFULNESS;

THERE'S a hurt in the heart of the night,
There's an ache where a song should be,
At the core of the dawn is blight —
For you have forgotten me.

O the weight of the dragging morn
When my sorrow lifts its head —
O the curse of a day still-born
With my soul's wound running red!

O hours that are bitten through
With the wormwood of memory —
When my sore heart calls for you —
Though yours has forgotten me!
