Simple or Troubled Path?

The man walks for years,
Down a lonely path.
Along comes a fork in the path,
Both are a better path in life?

Man sees one path that says,
Simple, nothing else.
The other path says,
Troubled, nothing more.

What is simple that is not lonely?
Simple is easy, day by day.
But simple is boring,
The same thing, day by day.
Is simple actually better than,
Lonely?

What is troubled compared to lonely,
Troubled is different and creates,
New and exciting, day by day.
Troubled is not you, not good like you.
Is troubled actually better than,
Lonely?

Which path do you choose?
The simple and easy?
The troubled and different?
Or turn around and forever be alone?
