Roads

there's a slim space

between
the what  
  you want to do
and the what
  you have to do...
  
between
the where 
  you want to be
and the where   
  you have to be.

a space that widens 
   with time
into a chasm.
until
that dream
  that road not taken
  be gradually consumed
by the forest
  obscured   
  becoming indiscernible
from the trees.
