    OTHER ROAD

    FIVE YEARS AND HE'S STILL APART OF ME
    FIVE YEARS AND I STILL FIND IT HARD TO BREATHE
    HE ONCE WAS THE ONLY ONE FOR ME
    FIVE YEARS AND I'M STILL INCOMPLETE.
    HIS WORDS WERE THE MUSIC TO MY SOUL
    HIS HEART WOULD SHOW ME THINGS I DIDNT KNOW.
    HIM STANDING THERE WITH TEARS FALLING DOWN HIS FACE
    IS AN IMAGE DISTANT TO ME THESE DAYS
    FORGET IS WHAT I TRY TO DO BUT
    YEARS MARK THE MEMORIES LIKE A POST IT
    BRIGHT COLORS FLASHING BY LIKE I DIDNT
    ALREADY KNOW THIS.
    CONSTANTLY REMINDING ME
    LIKE AN OLD MOVIE WITH NO WORDS
    IN AN EMPTY THEATRE
    YEAH ITS BEEN FIVE YEARS AND I'M DOING ALRIGHT
    EXCEPT FOR THE OCCASIONAL
    WONDERING WHO HE'S WITH AT NIGHT
    FIVE YEARS AND I'VE GOT A LOT TO SHOW
    WONDERING HOW MY LIFE WOULD HAVE TURNED
    OUT IF I WOULD HAVE CHOSEN THE OTHER ROAD.

    The Other Rd., is vast and always new

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
