Will music fall flat <br />upon my ears? Could <br />the sun rising become <br />only the day's light? <br />Is my laughter then <br />only an empty sound? <br /> <br />If I should lose my soul, <br /> <br />might I forget to forgive? <br />Would I still practice in joy <br />that which could just be done? <br />Would I care if you cry? <br /> <br />If I should lose my soul, <br /> <br />would I bargain to live <br />one more minute <br />without human love? <br />Seeing my reflection <br />in a rodent's eyes <br /> <br />and in the flick of a <br />serpent's tail?<br /><br />Cheryl Lynn Moyer Peele<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-should-lose-my-soul/
