Here I am slowly walking Down the road I have taken Have passed through the two roads Diverge in a yellow wood The choice has been made I chose to take this road. But I was defeated my mind is a traitor The thoughts of “could have been” Have started to win me over “It would have been better if I have chosen the other.” I feel so hopeless and helpless sadness, regrets and pain I don’t know when I’ll be able to reach the end. I looked to the direction Of where I came from I closed my eyes and saw again reasons why I’ve traveled this far I started to feel again The same feelings i have When I’ve taken my first step It was a desperate feelings Of excitement, untainted and pure. And then I remembered a poem That says to not regret and make a big difference With the choices we made. So I have managed to continue this journey with no turning back, Looking forward to the end Regardless of what’s waiting Despite it being unknown I have to make this choice A successful decision.
I was in the middle of war with my own mind before I wrote this. Thoughts of "what if" are slowly eating me inside. My career is going downhill lately and things are not going according to my plans.
And then I saw Robert Frost's the road not taken and it cheered me up and inspired me to keep going. It helped me not to regret my choice. It boost my confidence that my chosen path is the right one for me. :)
