The Road Not Taken


I'll never really know, will I...
if I've made the right choice
by choosing to veer off onto the road less traveled;
Yes, it's made all the difference
but the path is strewn with thorns and brambles
and so I wonder...
if I'm walking toward my destiny
or perhaps took the wrong turn, a few miles back.

Life is a gamble;
we never know what is behind door number 2...or 3;
if I believe everything happens for a reason,
then I have nothing to worry about;
my path is set out for me;
yes, I would like to believe that a power, greater than myself,
is watching over me;
it would be a comfort to really "feel" that truth right now.
Okay, so be it.

I have told him that I am leaving,
So I will leave;
Let the wings of destiny take me where they want to go.

  1. Godspeed charli, we will hold you in our hearts. We could talk about two way roads and the ability to turn back, but I think you will be fine. You are strong and capable, this is not a hasty decision you have made, you have worried over it for a long time...

    Live long and prosper.

  8. Brave? Am I brave...I am not so sure; perhaps it is only a desperation, of sorts. Anyway, thank you.
