The Road Already Taken


Two roads diverged in a wood and
I went back the way I came
Leaving both for another day
It doesn’t have quite the same ring
Does it but
It has a pull
The attraction of the familiar or
The unfinished
A yearning to fill in the picture
To know the details
Completeness
Comfort
Belonging
The attraction of that cozy little nook
You always studied in
In your college’s library
Don’t tell me you haven’t wished you could go back there and read a book
I have and
The truth that Frost left out
Is that you can
