i want to write a poem about hope, but the problem is i literally started getting interested in poems a few minutes ago and idk where to start, i have some ideas in mind but ive still haven’t got the hang of the rules of poems and stuff, i’m thinking of something about holding on to hope even tho many things have happened in life kept making u want to let go

thats a start... u alr know ur topic

#

every one of us has a different way of writing

#

some prefer the oldschool way of writing on a piece of paper 1st, then writing the final draft on a pc/phone

#

some directly write on pc

#

what i would recommend is that dont think

#

just pour ur heart into it

#

thats how i started

#

write a poem, if another poem inspired u to write it, u might alr have some idea about how u want ur poem to turn out to be

#

i just wanna let u know that even if ur poem doesnt rhyme, its fine... we love free verses

#

there are no rules in poem writing

#

its a way to vent out or to show ur creativity

#

a place where u can play with words

#

just write whatever u can and post it in #1040728773127061514

#

we'll help ya out if we think u need to change something

#

or if there is a grammatical error

#

but just chill mate...its the best way to write poems

The first rule to poetry is that there are no rules to poetry. (Ohkay that's an exaggeration) But seriously, its less about focusing on the rules and what's right and wrong while youre in the first stages of that creative flow, yk? Like, just pen something down, even if it doesnt make sense, even if the phrases are disjointed, you'll eventually find a way to arrange it later but nothing will happen unless you let loose and let the words pour from yer beautifully hopeful soul.

#

And taste your words. Do they feel right in your mouth? Do they feel good when you say it back to yourself? Does it hit the mark of what you're trying to express.

#

Also, if you're gonna be working with rhymes it always ok to look up words that rhyme with other words, yk?
