“A piece of art comes to life, when we can feel, it is breathing, when it talks to us and starts raising questions. It may dispel biased perceptions; make us recognize ignored fragments and remember forsaken episodes of our life story. Art may sometimes even be nasty and disturbing, if we don’t want to consent to its philosophy or concept, but it might, in the end, perhaps reconcile us with ourselves. ("When is Art?")”

The women out shopping for the evening meal of course, and baby carriage and the silver bicycle were already painted out by the darkness; most of the commuters too were already in place in their filing-drawer houses. A half-forsaken chasm of time .... ”
― Kobo Abe, The Ruined Map

“If You Forget Me
if you forsake me
I shall forget you too
don’t take me for
the lone redbud that lay bare
behind your window
in the garden

waiting once again
to embrace
spring
which has forsaken it
before.”
― Neena H. Brar

A crescendo of stridulation changes tempo, the insects seemingly performing a sonata as the rhythm shifts yet again.
“What—who is it?�� Summer asks in a strained whisper.
His gaze lands on her, his brows furrowing. “The Forsaken.”
― Laura Kreitzer, Burning Falls

“And no matter what
closet we were thrown in,
up what river we were sold
for an embarrassment,
or worse, traded
for a bottle of gin--
we’d carry on in

sooner than wished.”

“And even when he guessed that the love stories of the misled and the forsaken had become a little less authentic with each retelling . . . even if this was the case, he was still moved.

Maybe it was then that some part of me leapt away from myself, something fled from my brain, I don't know.”
