Cross Roads

In life So i have learnt There are always 2 roads to follow Always a cross road And maybe its just human nature Or Maybe its just one of life's truths That it is always our mistake to make Our error to learn from I have not worked it out for myself Nor have i found any answer from within But i ask you dear friend Is it not odd That when one stands at the cross roads The road that looks inviting and right In hindsight proves to be wrong It leaves me with a wry smile It leaves me with wondering why One always wonders Whether the road not chosen Would not have been better 'Cos it always seems that way With the benefit of time gone by It is sad however It is true One would never know Because no matter how The choice cannot be reversed Time cannot be turned back Leaving one to wonder What would have been had i not chosen you

Crossroads - being pulled in two different directions does define what choices is all about. Imagine a world where only one possibility is possible, such a world would be devoid of free will. It's human to wonder and second guess. The best we can do is learn how to live by and make improvements to the choices we have already made. Very well written Nico!
