What Have I Become?

An empty shell stands on the sea shore
Once a vessel of hopes and dreams,
a vessel of thoughts and ideas,
now just another lonely shell
for the passerby to look and and say
'Wow, that is neat, I wonder where it came from?'

Well, it boils down like this.
The history of that shell can be traced back for many years.
The shell has been scrutinized and picked on,
successful and intelligent,
Funny and humorous,
talented and gifted...

But what is left now?
Nothing
Nothing but an empty shell that stands for everything it was
Now what stands there is a shell, of a man
who has failed himself and the others around him.
This is the story of he has has fallen.
This story is mine!
