Just Know, I'm Excelling

It's been a decade since you seen or heard from me.
You likely thought I was mentally insane by no.
But I am the complete opposite. I have made the penitentiary into my university.
My mental and physical state are transcending.
I never used my incarceration as an excuse to regress.
I have utilized my incarceration to enhance myself in all aspects, which has allowed me to flourish in this dehumanizing place.
My self growth has become the core of life.
Those of you who truly know me are not surprised to find out I have continued to strive for greatness.
Yes, I'm still young clowning around, well grounded, non-bitter, and very humble.
Confident, blessed, and very positive minded.
So don't discount my growth and execute the rehabilitated like they did Tookie.
Just know, I'm excelling.
From feeling abandoned at times, to hoping to hear my name called at mail call, to no avail.
To those who wrote and showed their love, all have contributed to my desire to be a great asset to the world.
Those who do write, please know, it's not in vain.
You all continue to motivate me to prove my incarceration is not in vain.
Soon, all our hard work will begin to pay off.
Thank you to all of you who have been here for me. I love you.
Ignore the rumors.
Just know, I'm excelling!
