Do Not Destroy
Do not destroy the joy of all we had
The good need not be lost when lovers part.
If you need space then take it and be glad.
Because I love you, I shall now be sad
But there’s no need to stab me in the heart
Do not destroy the joy of all we had.
With your loving words I once was clad
Now naked to the winds, I must depart
If you need space then take it and be glad.
The only constant love is that of God
No Eros is He with his arrowed darts
Do not destroy the joy of all we had.
On these forlorn, faint tracks I have once trod
In my mind I search for ragged charts
If you need space then take it and be glad.
I have my maps and now am fully clad.
With tenderness,farewell my dearest heart.
Do not destroy the joy of all we had.
If you need space then take it and be glad
