Hey! :)

Poetry is merely an expression of one's inner turmoil, defining it or restricting it
to any one particular type or form would be cruel to not only poetry but also man's
ability to express.

As long as one is able to make the reader feel what one has been through, or one
is able to express what one has gone through or one is able to effectively make one see
what one see's,
That one is a poet.

Irrespective of rhyme, metre, vocabulary and definitions.

I've always been writing but only recently have I developed the courage
to see what others may think of my poetry.
I'd really like if you all could give my poetry a read and assess and evaluate
them.. :)
Any criticism and suggestions are welcome :) ..

Please read, rate and comment :)
I'd be very grateful to have a realistic understanding of my apparent skill :)

Thank you! .. :) ...

    so please tell us what is the difference between your work and prose
    you say
    " Poetry is merely an expression of one's inner turmoil, defining it or restricting it
    to any one particular type or form would be cruel to not only poetry but also man's
    ability to express. "
    ok so tell us why your work is just not plain old emotive prose
