The Road Taken

Convinced that this was the right way
i carried on, going and going, until
i was lost,but still, i carried on
going deeper and deeper.

By now my conscience had caught up to me,
i should have listened,
i should not have done
all the things that i have done.

Its too late to turn around now.
There's no time to regret,
it's time for action,
so i move forward in a new direction.

Altering my path, at every dead end,
for 'Change' is the name of The Road Taken.
