Forgotten? No, we never do forget:
We let the years go; wash them clean with tears,
Leave them to bleach out in the open day,
Or lock them careful by, like dead friends' clothes,
Till we shall dare unfold them without pain, — But we forget not, never can forget.

We can forgive, but we cannot forget. That quote is mine. Those that forget their past are sentenced not to have a future.

We forgive but not forgotten

Forget not when dear friend to friend returned,
Forget not days gone by, forget them not!
My mouth has tasted bitterness, and learned
To drink the envenomed cup of mortal lot;
Forget not when a sweeter draught was mine,
Loud rose the songs of them that drank that wine — Forget them not!

Forget not loyal lovers long since dead,
Though faith and loyalty should be forgot.
