Confidence drained out of my photographs Replaced by lines that weren't there All the hell's getting inside me Never imagined I'd be here Bowed on one knee Burning hope as incense at the altar Of vanity

solid poem with great metaphors. i especially like "burning hope as incense at the altar of vanity." implicit meaning is heartbreaking. good job!
