My past is but an echo in the back of my mind.

Influencing upon my present.

Guiding me to my future.

I can’t escape my past.

But I can learn from it.

And allow that knowledge to lead me into the dawn of a better life.

My past is but an echo in the back of my mind.

I don’t know where my persona ends & I begin.

So long I have worn this mask.

First for protection.

To keep my reputation safe.

This persona has taken over my life.

Who am I?

Forced to conform.

Will I find the courage to shed this persona?

Or will I die wearing this mask?

I hadn’t seen the show since I was a child.

But now this earworm is so stuck in my head that dynamite could not get it out.

So, here I go about day, humming the Pink Panther theme song.

Ba Dop, Ba Dop, Ba Dop Ba Dop Ba Dop, Ba Da Ba Da Ba Da…

Look at me in the clear light of dawn;

See me for who I really am.

Look at me in the light of the setting sun;

See the mask I wear.

In the clear light of dawn;

You can catch a glimpse of my soul

In the light of the setting sun;

You won’t see that it is black as coal.

Almost perfect.

Almost there.

Always on the cusp.

Never taking the risk.

Because I’m not perfect.

Wasting life chasing perfection.

Almost perfect.

Never good enough.

Wasting my life…

Chasing perfection.

My eyes used to sparkle.

Love shined.

Even in the darkest of times.

You were taken from me.

My eyes a lifeless brown.

No will to live.

Time moved on.

One day they made me laugh.

A sparkle came back.

Love shined once more.

I will always love you.

But I love them, too.

The woman next to me was refined.

Taking the news with dignity.

Her husband had left her.

My wife had left me.

For each other.

I grabbed the woman’s hand.

We left.

No tears.

I flipped the bird.

I look across the bar.

So much for refined.

As she allowed another body shot.

My response was inelegant.

I could not help it.

I was in shock.

Confessions 10 years too late.

Responding how I did was rude.

The way they ended 8 years was worse.

My response was inelegant to the apology 10 years too late.

It felt so good to say F*ck You, & walk away.
