(The Parlour) Whatever I would doA Poem by John HolmesIt is on my mind when the rain descends from the heavens It is the Crimson in my blood The Fire burning in my heart The Cold, Crisp Ice in my veins It is the song I sing in the darkest nights My charm My protection The curve in my script The Skip in my step How can one do this to me? Set my soul ablaze and my wings into flight You Know what it is Don't you? That image in your mind that ageless, timeless reflection in your eye you would raise up Hell And cast down heaven for them And that scares you Doesn't it? But that is how you know it is real When you're scared When you can't even think or sing or dance without the timeless image of them smiling haunting your every waking moment.
