I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
*~Robert Frost- The Road Not taken~*
I have been wandering down the same path for what seems like forever now. Up until now I have chosen the safe route. Avoiding the snakes and spiders that hide in the branchs, Under leaves and rocks. Never daring to venture into the dark woods in fear of what unplesentries they might hold.
My current path is sunny and safe except for the ocasional fallen branch or tripping over a small pebble. Now there is a fork in my road.
Which route to choose, which way to go. A desicion of a life time. My one path is still sunny and safe, life as usual. The other seems like a bad horror movie scene. Omnious and eeire where shadows lurk among the grove whistling a weary tune beckoning me to come.
If I take a step forward will it be to late?
If tonight I die for choosing the wrong path, it would be allright. If I took this step forward and fell instantly into a void of quicksand or stepped on the tail of a angry hidden snake. But I will hvae no regrets for whatever path I choose. No wishing to retrace my footsteps bake into my lighted path or wondering "what if." My Roads are clear cut and there will be no looking back. My paths are real, the dangers as well. If it my choice, Am I willing to risk everything? Am I willing to throw it all away? For something new, something better? Am I willing to take then chance? Without my traffic director or my
"this way" signs. Take one step forward, One step into the unknown... One step into the path less traveled by with my eyes closed and my head held high.
Bring it on.
Blood & Years,
