It was a road less travelled
Not the busy ones
Not the one with lights on
Not the one with passersby
It was a road less travelled
Not the ones with milestone
Not the ones with guarantees
Not even the one with a clear destination
It was a road less travelled
Nobody else except him
Nobody else who believed him
Nobody else who risked
It was a road less travelled
Neither people took that way
Nor did they allow others take it
They could scare anyone whoever thought of
It was a road less travelled
He found it exciting and equally scary
People warned him & laughed at him
He was scared more of the people than the road
It was a road less travelled
Ans he realized why it was
It was dark, wild & horrifying
And he knew the sun would shine
It was a road less travelled
It was a journey, but a lonely one
It was quite a sight, still a lonely one
He was his torch-bearer of his journey
It was a road less travelled
Nights & days passed
And everytime he ever felt going back
He would just think, "One More step"
It was a road less travelled
The scorching sun & the coolest shade
The harsh rains & the cool breeze
He kind of loved this adventure
It was a road less travelled
An off-road, an unclear trail
But he started creating one
Not knowing that someday it may help
It was a road less travelled
His every new step was a surprise
He was loving how the journey was shaping up
Just like how every curve lead to a new road
It was a road less travelled
Because it promised no destinations
It promised only a journey
And journeys are all that matters
It was a road less travelled
He was happy in his world
Nobody else to judge his abilities
Nobody else to judge him a success or a failure
It was a road less travelled
He just thought he was walking his journey
He never thought people would follow him
The trail he created helped people break paths
It was a road less travelled
He was now the torch-bearer of a generation
People who wanted to break routines
People who wanted to create new paths
It was a road less travelled
"You are a remarkable success", someone said
He just said, "I don't care success or failure.
All I know is that I atleast TRIED..."
