remember that?

by Olivia Weinkein

she said "please don't forget me."
he said "i will try to remember
to remember." and she would
have almost smiled at this (it
was his 'way' after all) but
she no longer had it in her
because
she had saw the future
FLASH
before her eyes.
and in it,
he had not remembered
to remember
at all.

I recommend deleting the repetition of "to remember" that occurs in the beginning of the third line, and the word, "and" that immediately follows. "She had saw" is grammatically incorrect. You either say, "She saw" or "She had seen". Also, what caused her to see her future flash before her eyes? This line feels melodramatic as it stands. I like where you're trying to go with this, it just needs a little work. I hope I've helped. :)
