Paths Untraveled

Do not shed a tear for those words of love never spoken

Do not tremble so hard that my knees are weak

Do not weep for me for those things that were left unsaid

Do not worry about me if my heart is broken

Cause the road ahead of me is filled with tears

And although I have felt the worse kind of pain I've known

I know that the future holds me not to be alone

So as I drive my soul towards a vision of passion

I see the road as a means to get me there fulfilled and free

Leaving behind those paths and roads untraveled

Has caused me to cry for those paths where I was left alone

Sometimes, the highway is long and twisted with long binding bends

Leaving me stranded to no blinded end crossing bridges small and broad

It’s the worse kind of pain you will have ever known

To leave behind roads untraveled and paths left alone

So take my hand and walk with me in sorrow

Take an empty seat beside me and see tomorrow

This is not about my heart being left shattered or unbroken

This is not about those hearts I left behind as time took its toll

And as I let that mistake pass me by in the morning sun

I know that the loss of your love wasn’t worth what it cost

Cause tomorrow can soothe the pain and sorrow that love can bring

Driving alone down the empty highways and sideways in the dark

Hoping that in time, all the pain will be gone and faded

I seem to weep for sights unseen and roads untraveled

I seem to yearn for the sunlight to bring me a new life of love

Looking at the stars and the moon gives me hope for tomorrow

Feeling the love inside brings me long deserved joy
