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. |

Thank you Sunshine and this deserves another bump Chris. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

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 |
