Fallen Down


    There was a time, not too long ago (so long ago)


    When I stood amidst the ashes of my failure


    A dream unwrought by misplaced trust


    This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.


    By failing health and my own laziness


    Yet even ashes nourish soil. In defeat I turned to a new cause worthwhile


    To be a shepherd of broken things.


    The discarded, unwanted and forgotten.


    It''s no search for truth, not a grand crusade.


    Yet its worth remains the same


    My happiness is almost what it seems


    Reduce, reuse, recycle was never meant for dreams.
