Poetry

My process includes writing down whatever is on my mind - I will dump information onto a blank sheet with no care for organization or spelling. Once all my thoughts are down, I'll take a day or two to clear my mind (especially if it's a heavier topic) and then come back to it with a fresh mind. Then I'll begin to organize and format it into, what eventually becomes, the final product.

Writing is a great emotional outlet for me; For the past few years, ever since the pandemic, I've been using poetry as a way to portray emotions I may not otherwise be comfortable with showcasing in public. I've been an overall happier person since I've started focusing more on writing.
