A Fork In the Road

I've come upon a fork that's in the road The choice that I must make will change my life Now will one life there be in this abode Or share it with the one who'd be my wife I've seen the joys and pains that others get When they decide to share each others heart Now some will last a lifetime but some let In troubles of this world to wit they part I think if they should each decide to make The other more important then themselves They will forever have a hand to take Instead of just some memories on shelves I think the road I'll take I now decide Will be the one in which I do not hide Written on 7/20/18 For the Finest Sonnet Poetry CONTEST Sponsor Mark Massey
