Isaac Berkley, from VA, looking for 1st penpal

Isaac Berkley III #317135
Coffee Correctional Ctr. ; Po Box 500; Mitchells, VA 22729

My name is Isaac Berkley III. I'm 27 years old. I'm mixed, I have gold skin, black curly hair and I stand 6 feet tall. Unfortunately, I'm incarcerated in Virginia. This is my first attempt at writing anyone outside the people I know. I'm looking for someone that's down to earth and very open-minded like myself. Age or race does not matter. Who ever write me- I don't want anything from you but you. What I am looking for is something that's pure. Speaking one's mind and honesty means a lot. People in my life now only know me for what I was, and what I used to do on the streets. I carried myself well and was well respected.

Before I got locked up I did not express my thoughts and true feeling s to anyone. I did not let anyone get too close to me. Me- as a man on the inside was falling apart. Therefore the people know really don't know the real me. They are just stuck in what I used to do, and the materialistic things that I had. It's hard explaining what I am trying to say.

To make a long story short have never had a woman in my life, besides my mom, that I just talked to and explained how I felt. I always played the tough guy. Now I want someone in my life that I can talk to and listen to. I like outspoken people because I am very outspoken. I like crazy conversations- the thoughts that you keep to yourself because, if you told someone, they would think something is wrong with you. That's what I give and also like hearing. There's a lot to know about me. I'm far from a burden. if you need someone that's real, I'm here waiting for you.
