I've Seen The Dark... is a very sentimental poem to me as it's a part of my daily life, almost from the moment I was born my fate had been sealed. I reflect to this day as it is a constant reminder. Maybe an illness some may say, but I wear it as a scar. Epilepsy is a part of who I am... and others too, though it will forever be Etched Into My Soul.
Please give it a read, and as always feedback is welcome.

@ohtobeadored You know the thing is was that he wasn’t even fully black… he was mulatto. He was more tan than black/white. I never knew how racist my grandmother was until we moved next door.
