So. I'm a big Taylor Swift fan and have a really big emotional heart. I have had many heartbreaks and I am in desperate need of catharsis. I have been writing since i was young but j have never really turned my own pain into art.

I mention Taylor Swift because she writes the most gut wrenching, apt and emotional songs. I wish I could extrapolate and live inside a moment. She hits the button of what I feel. Apart from her lyrics I seem to be unable to express it.

Do I: 1) just recount my pain and relationship experiences. 2) create a work of fiction and loosely base it off my experience.

I have no idea where to start or what to do. I tried writing in a loose form the other night and deleted everything I had.

I have no idea about the form of poetry and feel that quick short glances into my emotional psyche would be better than a long form story. So of anyone has resources for base level poetry that would be amazing.

I just cannot keep my pain in anymore and I have 0 talents or creative ability other than my use of written or spoken word.

Thanks in advance.
