The Road

This road

Well travelled,

Leads to monotony

That road

Less Travelled,

Leads to opportunity

I stand at the crossroads

Contemplating

Where is my destiny

My friends took "this" road

Earned, lived

And birthed progeny

They lead their life

Like many before

Without much creativity

I took "that" road

Faltering many a time

But always made a speedy recovery

This road stretched till eternity

With nary an exciting activity

That road gave me dignity

And honoured me with immortality.
