The Life Not Lived

Two roads diverged in a foreign land
And like a fool I tried to walk both,
Moving away with nowhere to stand,
Planning on things that cannot be planned,
Going nowhere but calling it growth.

Little changes as the days slip by,
Despite the paths seeming so diverse
There's always the same stars in the sky,
And it's nothing but the same old lie;
That the way you choose to go matters,

But having choice is key to this life;
Choice leads to choice and doesn't relent,
Some lead to joy, some lead to strife,
The ups and downs of which life is rife
Make you wonder where the time went,

As it moves on you can't stay still
And you can't just sit on the fence,
But bend life as best to your own will,
And feast on it till you've had your fill
And that will make all the difference.
