These two roads in the poem stand for a decision that he had to make. “Two roads diverged in a wood” this means he had two choices and they split apart from each other heading in different directions. Robert Frost says “Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way I doubted if I shall ever come back.” He knows that the decision he makes here is permanent, but he wants to feel like he can always come back. However, he knows that life moves on with few, if any second chances. His decision “has made all the difference.” He is not the same as he once was his future has changed based on this one
