My Deserted Road

Here I go...
Down the same road as them.
Again.
I didn't mean to really.
I tried beating a path through,
Make my own way, alone.
But I didn't get far.
So I shrugged and thought,
Maybe their road
Is the only one of all.

This write is full of regret yet its simple a straight to the point. I really like how it started off but I don't really like how it ended. I believe there should have been a 11th stanza before topping it all off. But even without my suggestions it still was a superb write. Great job, I enjoyed reading.

This is a really interesting and it was really thought provoking great write! I have felt like this try to make it on my own and realizing that in the end you are gonna need to allow yourself to let people help you. And take the path where that help is offered. This is really great! And thanks for the review!

I sympathyze with this thought of not being able to get far on my own. It is tough to do things totally alone. Thanks for sharing and great job. c:

We try so hard to pave our own ways through life...always difficult...we ultimately revert back to what we can understand! Well...sometimes :)

It was an interesting deep as it is just so amazing how you such few words to much such a powerful statement such as this. I mean some of us follow the crowd and the rest of us try to make our own way through the crowd but, sometime we go the wrong way ending at a dead end at life that leads us back to them the crowd none as the simple life. Anyways well done with words and meaning behind the words of such a deserted with so many followers of life.

BRILLIANT!
It is simple, but says so much. Everyone can relate to this.

your poem is full of regrets and the feeling of loneliness, beautiful in it's simplicity and shortness. Though it seems as if the road we are treading is a lonesome road sometimes our path converges with that of other people and we realize that the path we took is still the same we would take and that no matter what happens we are still happy for what we have done.
