The Bottom Line
by Terri Lyn Stanfield
Copyright: 4/14/2001
You've reached the point
Of no return
Left too many
Old bridges burned
You turned your back
On your old friends
Concerned only
With dividends
And tending your
Portfolio
Your only care
How far you'd go
I always thought
That you'd regret
What you'd done....but
You haven't yet
You've reached the top
At such great cost
But you don't know
What you have lost
Or is it just
That you don't care
For all it took
To get you there
You're not the same
As you once were
You're cold and hard
And act the cur
You may have won
The money game
But you have lost
Yourself the same
That human part
That made you real
That gave you hope
That made you feel
You've become an
Automaton
No emotion
Just focused on
The bottom line
And getting there
No matter if
It's foul or fair
The sad thing is
You've no idea
The tragic cost
Of your career
