Минула страсть

Минула страсть, и пыл её тревожный
Уже не мучит сердца моего,
Но разлюбить тебя мне невозможно!
Всё, что не ты - так суетно, так ложно,
Всё, что не ты - бесцветно и мертво.

Без повода и права негодуя,
Уж не кипит бунтующая кровь,
Но с пошлой жизнью слиться не могу я,
Моя любовь, о друг, и не ревнуя,
Осталась та же прежняя любовь.
