im a poet. but no one would know because i write for therapy...alll of my stuff is very personal. some of it i can't even read it over after i write it because its too much emotion. i pour myself into my writing. so i am a part of my schools poet club S.C.E.P.O.S and im hoping i can come out of my shell and share my work, cuz just how theaputic it is to write, i know sharing will take my emotional healing to another level. but i just gotta get the nerve! im about to explode !!!!

hey there girl!
how are you !
my advice to you is to EXPLODE and let LU know what is on your mind ... it is nerve wrecking at first but you get a certain HIGH when you perform/share with an audience that is feeling Spoken Word (the performance of poetry).... Ya Feel me.
EXPLODE UNTIL YOU CAN NOT EXPLODE ANYMORE... and once you do you will continue forever .. even if it is only once a week.. month .. day.. year.. whwtaever the case may be...
Also it is possible for you to write about other things than your personal life...
Expand your style... You can do it ...
I used to be the same way... when your time is due it will come along..
