The Road Not Taken

I'm going to give you a famous poem. The part I give you is my favorite part too. Here it is.

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference."

~Robert Frost

Tell me about the road you travel and a fork that you have come to. Did you take the road less traveled or the beaten path? Poem, short story, I'm not picky this time.

Have fun.

    how about a poem about being confused about which path to chose?
    Or what about dark stuff for this topic because i have some of those but I don't know how much you'd like that, if it would be acceptable at all, dark is something i'm unsure if it would fit in here
