Deconstruction of a poem

I am going to attempt to deconstruct Frost's The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
and sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, 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 feet 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 travelled by,
and that has made all the difference


Even before the poem starts you get the feeling of regret in the title, The Road Not Taken, because the reader feels that there is something important about this road that wasn't taken. Then in the second line Frost says "sorry i could not take both". This again, is showing some regret and sorrow about only being able to take one road. The third line goes on to contradict itself when Frost says, "be one traveler, long I stood". If he is a traveler, he should be moving, not standing for a long time. Travelers travel. The contradictions continue when Frost is comparing the two paths, because he says the second was "just as fair" but has a "better claim/ because it was grassy and wanted wear" and then a few lines later says "the passing there/
had worn them really about the same". So, why did Frost even say the second one had better claim, if they really are about the same? He then says that he will save the first path for another day, and then says he doubts he will ever be back. Why is he trying to give himself false hope that he will get to see the first path? Then, the poem goes back to the feeling of regret when Frost says, "I shall be telling this with a sigh...I took the one less travelled by" So, with this deep sigh of regret Frost says he took the road less travelled, but if the two paths are the same, how does he know it was the one less traveled, and wouldn't it be more traveled if he has taken it? Then, the last line says "and that has made all the difference". However, is this difference a good one or a bad one? We don't know. If you listen to all the other regretful notions in the poem, it is easy to assume that taking the second path made all the difference into something bad, and if he had taken the "road not taken" things would have worked out for the better. But, we don't know how things worked out.

This was my attempt. i hope it worked!
