REFLECTIONS

I sat silently at my desk
staring at the books that lay on it
yet not comprehending what I beheld …

My mind was wandering,
lost in a maze of thoughts,
seeking for solace and peace in its trail …

I relived past glories and shames,
I realized, alas, too late,
I was consumed in my work
- it ate both me and what little friends I had …

And now all is gone.
Do I hear ‘almost’?
My mind defiantly refusing defeat …

Your work ate both you and the little friends you have but you did nto mention the money that it brought into your pocket...The money is worth more than you and your friends.
