The Road Taken - So far

Yes, two roads diverged in a wood, and I-

I took the one less traveled by

and it has made all the difference.

Now, I live with my parents,

Broke AF, fighting indigence,

I opt plans with zero resurgence;

All because, I assumed I can’t be in stagnance,

To be sulking over the non-talents;

Too mannered to show indignance;

Hangouts, with that allowance,

Yet maintaining the bank balance,

Takes brain that could beat Artificial Intelligence;

Too poor for romance,

Work-outs at home, a hindrance;

Ill-fitting clothes and despondence;

Movie sites from Russians,

Settled friends, a nuisance,

Time flies in an instance;

Yet, not budging even once,

Instead, learning in abundance,

And turning a deaf ear for riddance;

The road so far by observance,

Has been long, tiring and insulting but since-

That appreciation, I’ve come to acceptance;

I know not what the future holds, hence-

Can’t give up as I’ve traveled this far with valiance,

And see, if the end is actually a difference.
