What should I write about?

I feel like writing a poem again.

I most always have a reason to write. Writing for me, is not merely to express my thoughts, however it is more to enlighten others my inner emotional struggle. Allow me to suggest perhaps your format. Imagine yourself walking around a corner and you hear the birds in flight above you. Simply create a story that explains their emotional flight. (I find staying close with NATURE is a safe ground to work upon.) Human emotions can become confusing when the writer cannot view the thought on the photo in front of us. I am eager to read your words!

I always thought poetry works best when you write how you feel, especially when it can't be expressed in any other way.

@SW-User Did you try to visit past places where you used to get inspiration from?

@SW-User Just a suggestion; When we dream, it is often a memory flash in our brain, Not a real or true place. Yet we can use our senses to introduce our surroundings. We can recall conversations of our past. Remember the emotional ties that we tried to break away from, And most of all feel. Yes we can feel a and touch a memory. So many thoughts we have buried.
Write the story. Plant the seed to watch it grow. Let it come to life. Have it so the reader can FEEL their pain, Allow the reader to want to rush in and relieve this PAIN.

How often have you watched a movie and felt the writer made a huge error on that scene?
