An African i am proud of who i am, proud of being black, proud of emerging from what is dubbed over eons that it is a dark continent. In as much as my continent has been painted with such a disgusting paint. A paint that is difficult to scrub off. I have learnt to use this stain to express who i am, what i am and why i am African. Opening a door of self discovery , self pride and self understanding . It is like embarking on a journey beyond the wall. A door where i have opened and better yet i am to understand what am i in this world. A door that i know some of my principles i will have to forsake and others i have to absorb. In as much as i have taken up this journey with my backpack. I do understand and know that i am an emissary, an ambassador, a missionary an explorer upon a journey of rewriting the falsehoods that have been painted upon my people and me.

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute, we read and write poetry because we are members of the human race." -Dead Poets Society I'm a 17 y/o (Started this when I was 15) just wanting to share some of my poetry with people other than my friends :] (Also feel free to comment any tips and how I could improve on my writing!)
