In Leaving You, I Turned Away from Passion Alpha List Love Poems Sad Poems Contents Home All poems: copyright by Nicholas Gordon Free scrapbook poems permission to use provided by the author. In leaving you, I turned away from passion So that my conscience still might spare my heart. Though paradise has never been my fashion, I cannot stand your pain now we're apart. Love does not leave when it is bid farewell, Looking back to wave one last goodbye. Love stays, though vow and circumstance compel One to ignore its unrepentant cry. Vases hold the loveliest of flowers Even as they open, bloom, and fade; You and I must hold our sweetest hours, Of hope and need and fierce, fierce pleasure made, Until they vanish in the darkening shade.
