I know what poetry does for me. It allows me to express myself and be myself. To be myself without the presence of judgement. Poetry is the illuminator of my soul; the rhythm that flows to the beat of my life.I don't know what I would do if poetry never existed! So, since you know what it does for me; I wanna know...what does it do for you? This post may be a bit generic,but I am very very interested in knowing what everyone is feeling.Hope to hear from you guys soon :)

I feel the same way. Poetry is great and has no limits.
Poetry is an expession of oneself, I feel it, breathe it, an see it, poetry is my life, makes me relax an happy, I enjoy what I write..
That's the same way how I see it. Poetry is my life, my past, and how I see in life. With poetry I only write on things I know. Things I've lived through seen and see. But I don't write lies. I keep it 100 just like I do in my life day to day. No other form of writing can do what poetry does. Not music, screenplays or anything else.
I absolutely agree.Thanks for sharing :)
poetry for me is whatever is on my mind. if its anger, depression, true feelings, how i see the world, how someone else thats close to me sees the world. whatever it may be.. i keep it real and i also like to have fantasy play its part. I usually write what I feel especially if somethings been on my mind for a few days.. thats what poetry does for me.
That's very good. Some people don't realize how healthy writing can be for your mind. Thanks for sharing :)
writing clears my head. being alone with your own thoughts and memories for to long makes it hard to see.
reading other peoples words lets me know that i might not be alone, that someone else is living, thinking or dreaming the same as me.
poetry gives me peace and knowledge, strength and inspiration
that's beautiful :)
Poetry, is my outlet... It allows me to defrag my thoughts in ways that surprise myself at times... I started to write when i was 14 years old... I was at a point in my life where I felt alone, confused, helpless, and angry...This art form is pretty much my therapy, and it allows me to connect with others on an emotional level... When I read others poetry, I can sometimes be analytical. But, I love getting the chills behind my neck when reading a piece that I can connect with... Oooo poeTRY.... one love
I think that's great that you've been writing since you were 14.And yes I feel the same way about reading others' poetry. I love connecting with others through words with emotion...It's a great thing.Hope all is well with you...Peace :)
Poetry is my everything. It helps me uncloud my thoughts, and maintain a positive outlook on life. Evn though my poems range from bright and happy to dark and depressing, my poems connect with people and I love nothing more than finding a personal connection with my fellow people... besides writing. Poetry is my outlet, my muse, and my life force
