The Wrong Path

Contributed by kiss4roq on Monday, 18th April 2005 @ 10:25:13 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



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…

(Traveling the wrong path, made my life horrible, made me rethink all choices that I’ve ever made…what path will you take?)


(the one and only, Kristena)

Words of warning. I'll take heed.
