The sigh near the end of "The Road Not Taken" is intended to express a feeling of regret that the speaker will never know what would have happened to him in life if he had taken that other road, the road which he calls the one not taken. Obviously, if he had taken the other road, then the road he actually took would have been the one not taken. This poem is obviously not about a man taking a walk and having to choose between two real roads. The crossroads in the poem are a metaphor for a time in the speaker's life when he had to make an important decision about how he was going to live his life. Some have speculated that the speaker of the poem is Robert Frost himself, as he had to make a decision about a very common life problem. He knew he had creative talent, but he still had to make a living. He could either have a spartan existence, not unlike that of Henry David Thoreau, and devote his life to poetry; or he could get some kind of job and only write poetry in his limited free time. Frost chose the former "road." It was a long, bumpy road, but he was one of the few poets who achieved recognition and financial security. If he had taken the other road he might have been equally successful without having to endure the rather dreary life of a New England farmer. But he would never know.
