  1. In my case, poetry has always been one of my favorite genres in literature. I really enjoy from reading it and analyzing it by my own conjectures. The only thing that i love more than reading poetry is writing it. Poetry frees me from my own fears, and allows me to see the world with hope. In poetry I can see who I am and discover what I really want. It makes me feel the hidden inner strength that I usually forget exists in me. Poetry has been my best partner in the hardest episodes of my life..
