What is a Poem?


A poem is any emotion that we feel. It's twisted and formed into whichever way the writer wants it to be portrayed as to the reader. Rhythm can be a twist, rhyme is a flow, and texture can be the way you try and make the reader feel. All of these things are ways in which writers try to express their deepest and most personal experiences and emotion, or even their least personal experiences.
Poetry can be used anywhere and for anything (not just for the lonely). We hear it everyday; it's in our music. It's in a writer's and a reader's mind. It may seem as if poetry is disappearing, but it's not. It's all around us. As long as we keep on living and feeling, there will be poetry.
