The Road Not Taken

The fate that awaits the road, not taken, a change of course when a vision didn’t last? It is a shadow road, unknown, never a look at the future and never a glimpse of the past. It is a road that will never fulfill a dream and will never cause heartbreak or taste defeat. It will never clam a treasure to boast or attempt a hurdle too high to leap. It is a safe road never to be known, never has a destiny, never owes a debt, only a mirage of a future that never tolerates regret. It is a story never written with nothing to gain, only a tease a plan that turned on the change of a mind and drops away like falling leaves
