Who am I

Writer's picture: EarlSunEarlSun

"As I've stated in several posts, I used to write as a way of expressing how I felt while dealing with childhood traumas. This was something I wrote when I was 32 years old and it's titled 'Who am I?'


I’ve spent half my life in the penitentiary and I’m only 32. Do you see some of these traits in you? I know the penal system like the back of my hand, that’s because I was raised there from a boy to a man. I’ve seen all kinds of talent there go to waste, they’ll always be known as a number and never a face. I’ve been hardened by what I’ve seen in that dark place and I find myself at times filled with hate. I know I will go back, I know this as I speak, I’ll be going to see my father again next week.


I’M A VICTIM OF MY FATHER'S CRIMES


I share this because it’s an experience that is shared by many but often goes unnoticed. Fatherless homes impact the children left behind, thus creating individuals who may lash out in school, inflicting pain on others as has been inflicted on them. This can turn into what people call a danger to society. Monsters aren’t born, they’re created."
