The Wrong Path

Walking down to the fork in the road
Reading the most wonderful ode
Finally reaching two different directions
The road now divided into two different sections
Which path do I take?
While making my decision, I begin to shake
I look far down the first choice
Hearing a sweet, sweet voice
Seeing sunshine and flowers
Finding myself staring down this path for hours, and hours
Birds chirping and sweet melodies I do hear
Just as I find my conclusion is near
I look down the next route
All melodies and songs mute
The path is straight, not a slight bend
I see darkness, nothing but a dim light at the very end
I think hard for a moment, my mind I did lose
No sweet song, no beautiful flowers…and yet, this is the path I choose
Curiosity swallowed me whole,
Just then, I lost my soul
This caused me to travel the path that no one should ever travel
A path filled with jagged rocks and sharp gravel
I feel blood pouring from my feet as I walk over the jagged rock ground
Not a soul to be found,
Just complete darkness and pains in my feet
Blood provides warmth so sweet
I took the path to find the dim light
I’m dying now, of a dreadful fright
As I traveled closer and closer to my destination at the end of the lane
My knees give out; my feet are in a pulsating pain
Finally reached the dim light so pale
Slowly beating heart begins to fail
Realizing that it was false light
And then, I began to fall
It was a little bit of hope at the end of my life’s plea
Yet it was only a stream of moonlight, shown through the trees
Why didn’t I take the better path?
Instead I chose an evil life’s wrath
Why did I choose to follow my curiosity?
To myself I was an atrocity
I found that nightmares I fear
Became a reality, and I shed a single tear
I feel that day,
I chose the wrong way
And now I’m stuck
Totally out of luck
On my way down hill,
With no life, no will
I wish I could have made the right choice
But I’m left with no voice
So, think of this when you travel your own way
Causes know this now, you will some day…
