What wealth the show to me had brought

Is it a declamation? In that it makes a statement (in a poetic way) by reversing the subject and object(s) of the verb, but it still isn't passive as such.
The show had brought me great wealth. (Active, factual)

Does it mean that the show had such a meaning behind it that it brought wealth by that meaning behind it? Not monumental wealth but spiritual or emotional wealth?

It sounded like a sad expression to me... somebody spent his entire life in the show business, but then discovered that he wasted his life in vain. & now he's pitying himself.
Actually, it reminded me of a stanza in Madonna's song "Don't cry for me Argentina" it was saying:
And as for Fortune, and as for Fame.. I never invited them in
though it seemed to the world they're all I desired
They're all illusion
They're not the solution they promise to be

How pretty the daffodils were, "Beside the lake, beneath the trees
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze...." Or at least that is what William Wordsworth seemed to imply when he wrote it.

I was born male but I want to be female. I live most of my life as a woman. I mean, I dress up like a girl everyday, but I want to be a woman. What should I do?
