The Path Taken

these two very paths
from which both ive lived upon
one endless, one bounded
i stare down where dirt meets fog
fog crawls to gray

i turn to the short lived path
i see all it holds
chaos, action, ruckus
at the end i see a grave
with my name on the stone

at first they both look similar
conditions what determine their fate
the calm and the storm
the decision between paths
what some struggle to choose

i travel into the endless unknown
discovering beauty and crudeness
i took this path unrevealed
then made all the difference

Wanted to add my own spin on Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken."
