Beach

I walk alone on this desolate beach. There are no accolades echoing in my 
head. I am a wasted shell that has excelled in the art of failure. My chemical 
companions, and vanishing memories wade through the low- tide waves. I 
have built many castles in this sand. But I, not the sea, have destroyed them all.
