justify the tittle of poem the road not taken

This poem is about poet's dilemma concerning what option to take up and which one to leave. Such situations are faced by one and all. When one is forced to decide just one option out of the two equally attractive choices. The poet also faced the same situation. While walking on a road, he came to the point where the road diverged into two roads. He stood long at the fork, not able to decide as to which of the two roads he should take. He was willing to travel on both the roads simultaneously; but practically it is not possible. So he decided to take the road which appeared to have been travelled less. However, he was regretful for the road he could not take. So the title is aptly justifiable.
I hope its helpful to u!!

A man is in the woods in the fall of the year.  A crossroads stands before him.  He is sad that he cannot go down both roads.  He stands for a long time looking down one of the roads until the foliage interferes with his view.  For some reason, he chooses the other road.  Initially, he says that the other road had been less travel and was the better choice.

Eventually, he admits that both roads were about the same. His commitment to go the other way forces him to travel down that road.  He wishes that he could come back some day and travel down the other way; however, he knows that this is doubtful.    

His final thought is that someday he would be thinking about his decision;  and he would tell the story of the two roads.  He will tell the story with a twinge of regret…because this road made all the difference in his life.So the title is absolutely justifiable.
I hope it is helpful to u.
