Hi…..I’m almost……David

its been a long journey……. Stopping at places I never wanted to go

doing what I never wanted to do

being what I never wanted to be

to please others

I suppose it would be correct to call me a coward….up until now

Now…..I am free of the good opinions of others

people and things will take you to destinations you could never fathom on your own

but for the sake of fitting in……and not making waves…..you row in directions that never felt right

but you bit your tongue and tried to make the best of a lie …. From you the liar….the pretender…..a chameleon that changed colors depending on the situation…..no more

I apologize to myself for being a mule with a bit in his mouth……governed by the desire and whims of the current owner

Owners changed frequently because when I had enough I kicked the gate open…..only to run into the pen of the next owner

Almost David…..is on the right path finally……and He isn’t going back to being a mule anymore

I’m not for sale and the pastures I’m heading to are of my own choosing…. Goodbye from solitary confinement……I have accepted the pardon

welcome to Almost David……no we haven’t met before…..it was someone pretending…..

to be me………Almost David
