Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
- American poet Robert Frost (1875-1963)

I had to memorize the entire poem in 8th grade...

Quick, what's the ending ? the suspense is killing me, the rest of the story please

 

[sushob]

actually, that is the ending!

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
