I am standing in the middle of nowhere.
There are two roads in front of me. They are un-nervingly parallel.
One is dark and quiet, somewhat overgrown and moonlit; things of an unidentifiable nature seem to glimmer in the foliage. But it is not well trodden. And I cannot judge the distance to the end.
The other is a bright and ordinary highway, busy and burbling. People pass and laugh and exchange meaningless nothings. It is populated, it is safe. There are even signs to show the way.
A shard of common sense pierces me and tells me to choose one or the other, instead of standing here stupidly in nowhere.
But I don't know which to choose. And I also don't know why I can't walk them both.
