(i have no idea what to call this poem)
February 26, 2023
I am sitting here
no, perched
you know what
that’s a terrible start to a poem
let’s begin again —
My keyboard clacks like
like what?
what am I trying to say?
I hate this feeling
of having emotions churning (burning?)
through my chest
and not being able
to find the right words
to set them free

I like the feel of this poem
This was written when I was feeling a lot of conflicting emotions and was struggling to express them. Usually poetry is a way for me to set my emotions free, so not being able to find the right words to do that was extremely frustrating.
