I took the road less travelled by,
and that has made all the difference
In the beginning, I was happy
a child living blissfully
But as age crept up on me
The darkness followed ultimately
It had the power to consume me
To drown me hopeless and truly,
It did at first
Like it did so many others
And for a while I was lost
Stuck in stormy whether
But you pulled me out
My saviour no matter
How dire ...

I press my body to the floor, glad not much of my skin could touch the cold tile, but also wishing I was wearing less as the fire beat against my skin in one, powerful pulse. I waited just an extra second, to make sure every explosive went off. That one second could be the difference between victory, and death.
Knowing how The Watchers work, if I’m caught, ...
I took the road
That lead me
To late nights
In her bed
I took the road
That lead me
To her giggles
At three AM
I took the road
That lead me
In the art room
With her legs wrapped around me
I took the road
That lead me
To 11 PM

I took the road
Less traveled by
That have made
All the differences...
Daring truths,
And crystal lies;
We’re planting roots
That reach the skies.
Quiet storms,
Nothing to fear;
What we mourn,
No one hears.
Clothing shredded
On the battlefield-
What we mended
Is now our shield.
We get battle-scars
For the sake of glory;
Scars on hearts
Make up our story.
We want results
Without the pain;
We act like adults
For the sake of gain.
We think squeaky clean
Is the drea...
Get ready
It’s time to stroll and roll.
Should I fasten my seatbelt?
Life is a beat and time is running fast.
Yet, I took a pause.
Well a lot of pauses. To make turns.
Detour for awhile.
Fill up my gas tank. and gaze.
Gaze at how things were before
Marvel on the present day.
and make way for the Future.
I took the road less traveled by and that has made all the difference.

I had two choices.
One with a future so certain it was like predicting a cliche play's last part.
The other, with no information, just a certain fresh start.
I chose the second of course, otherwise I wouldn't be here.
I wouldn't be writing this, but instead, I think I'd be shedding a tear.
I chose the door with no certain outcome, but I also chose the door where I found my tongue.
It wasn't frie...
I was going down a road, not just any road, a sinful road. Doing drugs, committing blasphemy, gossiping, worrying, being scared. Then I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference. I stopped all the sinning and followed Christ and becoming a better human being. Until this day I thank the lord for saving me and being blessed....
Some says it’s impossible
To go where others have been
Others never even tried
Through the Jagged mountains and steep slopes through the tall grasslands and the running streams
Through forests and towering trees
Deep in the tundra were everything is white as can be,
Across the rolling hills of farmland and land untouched by man as far as the eye can see plains and Ragged canyons
Acros...
Your choices shape these roads
I couldn’t have figured it out
Without you tearing them all up
It curved and winded all of them country backroads
Like your body in bed baby
Double cheeked up against mine
Your a song of the south
A tune on the breeze
I want to listen you everyday darlin
A beautiful sound indeed
I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all of the difference
I’m sing...
‘I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.’
Words to live by and yet so often ignored, in favor of playing it safe.
Following the straight and narrow
path of security but losing the promise of magnificence.
Conforming to expectations in one’s youth, only to find with age comes the chafe.
The desire to do it all differently,
tomake of one’s life a clean slate
