William Wordsworth ,a prominent poet once defined poetry as 'a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings ' . I disagree.
When I heard it first I felt it's right ,but when I experienced it I realised that it's wrong. Cause when it happened I was so much full of extreme feelings that I couldn't concentrate on anything ,except on the thing that happened. But I wrote a poem the next day about it .
Poetry isn't a sudden overflow of powerful feelings because when it happens you can not even think .. At least that's what I felt .
So for me poetry is the aftermath of your overflown

Unleashed
This is a book of poetry. Basically my emotions unleashed through words. That is how I see poetry. Sometimes what we think about and processes in our head is to much. Writing it all out helps me let go of the mess in my head. Hope you can connect with some of these because sometimes just knowing you are not alone with how you are feeling is enough to comfort yourself.Complete
These Insufficient Words
Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words. -Robert Frost This is my own collection of thoughts. My own stories, through the deepest sorrow and highest peaks of happiness I've had in my rather brief life, and some that others may also be able to relate to. Sometimes, words are insufficient. Sometimes, they're too accurate to emotionally bear. Sometimes, they're what provokes the deepest part of your soul. You be the judge on how poetry affects you. You read; I just tell the stories. #thecosmicawards2018Complete
Poems (collection 1.0)
please don't read this (i laugh here, but i'm not joking). this is a relic. consider this the museum of my progression in writing. you can find the better (marginally) stuff from this one in "Poems (collection 2.0)". Thoughtful, often sad, and angry poems. It's an outlet. A way to be heard. Not genius; only jumbled messes of the multitude of my thoughts fighting their way out of my brain. There's so much I want to say, but not enough time to say it. Here are my attempts.Complete![In the mean time [ A Poetry Collection ] #wattys2019](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/92437697-256-k214720.jpg)
