Do you let out your feelings on this site?

Yeah i let out my emotions through writing poems...

Normally i never talk about myself at all, but on here it seems like i always end up talking about myself, even when i comment on other peoples poetry. i think that what i have to say seems more interesting on here than with my friends and family, or maybe they just know everything about me so i never need to tell them. i think its the latter.

Always!

Yes..

Yes i do. This website probably knows more about me than anybody that knows me in person. People here dont judge me and i dont feel imbarassed when they read my poems..all my poems are REALLY personal and i would feel weird even showing them to my best friend who i completely trust. I'm learning who i am from this site..and it feels really good..its one of the only places where i dont have to lie and say "im fine"

My way of showing my feelings is through my poems. i dont really talk about my problems in general. i just put them into poems. its the best way to express your feelings. the only person i share my feelings with is my best friend who is also on this site because i can relate to her in just about anything.

I have no poems based on my feelings...

Mr. Jurechka's quote springs to mind:

"Writing the poems are easy, it's the living that's hard. I do not write my poems. I live them."

And judging by what I have shared amongst you all on this website so far, I'd say I live my poetry too :).

Well to me. the whole point of poems is to show my feelings. except in the abuse ones. that doesnt really happen. but it shows my feelings toward ppl who abuse ppl.

All my feelings are in the things I've written , probably resulting in bad poetry often
but I don't write with the idea of" hey this is how I feel,read my emotion"
I write for me, but I do share the resulting poetry

I do express my feelings on this site. I post my poems on here so others can read them, thats not why I write, I write because I love to write, but I like having people read my poems and I like to hear feedback on them. I like this site because I don't know any of the people here personally. I have never shown my poems to two of my friends before and thats partly because they are poets too. I would be too scared to ask any of my other friends to read my poems, I guess I'm just scared they would judge me. But on this site no one judges me by how I look or act, they judge me by my poetry and thats what I like about it.

All my poems ive wrote is about summit ive done, or about summit that as happened. i hide behind a joke and noone rarely sees the "real" me so poetry is like the way to show what im like ya see. but cant say im good at writing poems lol xx

Well i try to be open on this site but i get scared and feel judged i guess..i dunno but i express and am open more when i am sad and going through rough phases...this site is nice but im used to my old one cause all the people understood me but i left thats sit because it became full of drama and harder to express, but im sure the more im on ill warm up...umm do any of you feel the same way?

Yea

Its more esaier to show your feelings on this site than to tell people face to face

I feel that on here its easy to let others know how you feel, cuz you really dont know them

Ido not let anyone know my feelings they are to bad to be made known

I completely agree! No one really knows my past and they don't know me. They don't even seem to understand me. It is sooo much easier with a barrier like this one in order to talk to strangers who can't judge you and can relate to you. I have never really shared my poety and the few times I did no one really cared. And I know for sure if they caught a glimpse of my work, then they will not recognize me.

I feel exactly the same way man, its a good way of expression not only for when your sad but for if you are happy, angry, anything.

I react the same.. i can only truely get my feelings out when wrtting a poem, its like the paper is such a good listener. That is where i got the idea of writting a poem based on someone and thir dairy; caling it there friend- the great listener. 'The innocence of my friend; My diary'
but i do try and write about things other than my feelings, as thats always more challeging for m

I feel like I'm with a community which holds a mature attitude towards expressing emotion through the words of poetry or quoting. I'd like to think that I too am mature enough to be with you, despite being 15 years of age. I do express everything in my poetry, as I'm not afraid to leave out any facts because I know I won't be judged.

Yeah i somehow released my emotions in this site through my poems 'coz i'm a quiet type and sometimes i don't discuss it to anyone..But some of my poems doesn't really speas of what had happened to me, just the emotions and i let my imagination work on it on how am i going to plot it..

Sometimes usually i just write sometimes if i need to i will or i as i said i just write
