and after all this time i see
the joy of life has gone from me
my face is empty, saddened, worn
my heart is broken, wretched, torn
my friends have left me, on the shore
of life eternal, evermore
to lonely be
and always flee
the demons of my mind
The photo is based on this poem I wrote. The first person POV does not mean me, just in case anyone's getting worried. :-) But, the challenge says not to photograph something and make it look like a failure, but photograph something that *represents* a failure. So I'll just say that yes, I do find something of myself in the poem.

Sorry but too dark/blurry/bluish for my taste, not aesthetically pleasing. The reason why I am saying this is I make it a rule to explain when I give low ratings, wich is what this got from me.
You produced an interesting image that has a cool composition, but I have a hard time realting it to failure. I like th blue hue and the lighting is great.
I think you were using the blurriness as an added effect to being lonely, but I think it took away from the photo. First thing I noticed was two eyes on the same side.
