Walking along the road; a sunny day,
Tired and thirsty I lost my way,
Every direction I could see,
A different way, a different place to be,
Some appeared smooth and bright,
Others portrayed darkness and fright,
A novice I was, biased to the bright,
Did not wait to think the other side,
May not be as bright as this,
So I just stepped ahead in bliss,
In the way came a fold,
All that glitters is not gold,
I turned around to step behind,
But the way to me was totally blind,
As quoted “if you cannot beat it join it”,
So I refused to forfeit,
Walking along the road ever minute every second,
Killing my conscience as it beckoned,
Just ended the journey with tears by my side,
Nothing at the end I could not abide,
Only once if I had asked for a way,
Singing with joy I’d happily stay,
But that was my part of fate I feel,
Only one wish granted to me I will,
Just sit at that junction where I began,
So another wanderer in a further span,
Would see my pitiful state,
And think at least once, to choose the right gate.
