love has left me here
in this barren world of want
which way do I turn
away from my lust for you
or back to basic instinct

Chris,
There's a difference? Hmmm Fun question. Is there a follow up poem that answers it?


If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

here I am in a world
I don’t recognize
standing at a fork in the road
I have never seen
after weighing my choices
I have chosen the warmer path


If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

The excellence of the question
wrought a poem in return...

a double dip in delight.

Amazing question, dear Chris! In the desire, there is life! Combine both. No need to flee ...

Beautiful ... Larry's words too.

Love,
Margherita

Rich diction. And when accompanied by such an image. Strength and power in words.
By the by....I like basic instincts.

Strong image perfectly matched with the strong words of indecision.

Tough question ... if the world of want is barren, then turning to basic instinct is like ... the bird in hand, I would think

interesting thoughts
