The Road not Taken

I\'ve once heard of this path before.

Some said to have traveled it, but sadly became lore.

Now headed to it\'s direction, I soon wondered.

If those clouds above it, has ever thundered.

 

As I approached this threshold of bone and sorrow.

I stared into what was dark, and found it hollow.

I cross over this dark margin of despair.

And into a world full of the debonair.

 

As if that menacing line was a facade.

Only to reveal a region of the greatest awe.

Roads paved carefully with only the finest marble.

And the buildings built of the purest metal.

 

I ventured onward to reach the end of this dream.

I saw the exit at the end of a sunbeam.

Now reluctant to cross into such a mediocre world.

I take one step, and the image behind me becomes whirled.

 

This road was once a symbol of fear.

Now becoming a totem of wealth and cheer.

People still see it as this road not taken.

But many travel to find it wildly awakened.
