Poetry

Okay. So maybe your stuck on poetry. My biggest tip is to write from the soul. Poetry sounds more authentic that way. Let the reader know your feelings on the topic. Include a lot of imagery! Poems are made up of description. Read this sample poem to help you!

The Dream
your heart beats,
you love what you hate.
your the victim of a dream
drawn in with the perfect bait.

you feel yourself slipping
out of time and space.
your body is steel
or that seems to be the case.

you jump and glide
past the moon and stars.
they close around you
protective like iron bars.

you sweat, you shake
and you are lost forever.
what was once in your grasp is gone.
do you still feel clever?

you open your eyes
to the world that you know.
the dream was okay
but you decide no longer to go.
