Fork In the Road

I have come to a fork in the road
Which path shall I choose
Is the one less traveled
The one with the most to lose

You must be careful
In this choice that you make
For a heart is hanging in the mix
There is way to much at stake

This future
Is in your gentle hands
The very essence
Of what makes us man

Free will
A chance for us to decide
The outcome of our lives
We cannot hide

So when you come to the fork in the road
Choose the path that will lead you home

The End
