YOU CAN DEPART, by PAUL FORT First Line: You can depart. The sadness is for me. What do you care that I'm Last Line: The sea is very fair. Subject(s): Hearts; Kisses; Love | ||||||||
You can depart. The sadness is for me. What do you care that I'm no longer fair? Forget you? Ah! Our youngsters three are there. You can depart. The sadness is for me. You stay despite yourself. Our youngsters three resemble you. The sadness is for me. They all have sombre eyes. My eyes are blue. They kiss me, then they run away. Like you! You can depart. Oh, I will faithful be! You can depart. Remembrance is for me. Go, Jean, another love awaits, your heart to snare. Go, Jean, my husband, go. The sea is very fair. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD A PORTFOLIO OF SKETCHES: THE LITTLE ANNUITANT by PAUL FORT |
