Over you silver blue rain falls
From the bright black stars
It's a winding stairway taking you
All the way to the mars
Now look beneath your feet
It's a scary wild jungle out there
Will you care to walk this path?
Now that your feet are bare...
To your left is the hungry silence
To be eaten up alive, do you dare
And if you have the courage
Straight away drive in there
On right is the light of love
Mostly the end leads to loneliness
But there is a wild chance
That you will find desired happiness
But, behind, oh behind is your home
Your family, good times and friends
Where happiness awaits your arrival
And where all your sorrow ends
Which path will you risk to take?
The one joyous or the one forsaken
You get the life, but for once
Never follow the road not taken....

yeah I know most of the poems I've written in the last few months need to be worked out... I have been going through horrible writers block, and in struggle to get out of it I've been writing baloney... I'll try to sit back a correct all the flaws in this poem.. thanks for reading

...Awesome stanza. The core of the poem, the meaning, is one that is very true. Many of us do not take the other road, unfortunately. The piece can use a bit of work though. Your rhyming is not awe-stricking, and you can form a few lines in a different way. However, being that english is your second language (as I believe), this poem is great. It is definitely much better than the majority that I have seen here on AP. Good write, and keep writing...
