Free verse is the best because there's no rules to adhere to

I always write free verse poems. I’ve never liked the idea of conforming to poetic constraints. So, learning about free verse changed everything!

Your poem is very relatable. I also speak too quickly. I get nervous whenever the conversational focus is on me. I just want someone else to be in the spotlight! 😅

Free verse poetry! Nice to see you branching out! I found this powerful, and relatable. I usually write free verse poetry, yet am obsessed with haiku writing now and am beginning to think about playing with other forms as well.
