The road taken

Standing at a fork in the road,
Contemplating on which way to go,
If i go to the left it leads me down the road i already know,
But the road to the right is unknown,
You stand on the road to the left,
The right is empty and alone,
You smile and hold your hand out to me,
But the road to the right calls to me,
If i take your hand i know where it will lead,
Back through the tears and pain of an empty dream,
But the road to the right anythings a possibility,
So i tell you goodbye,
I take a deep breath and turn to the right,
One step at a time,
I walk into a new life.
