Just remember a poem can be anything you want it to be. You can follow a meter, or write freestyle. Poetry is like a painting where your medium is words. There's no right or wrong way to do it so long as you feel like you're expressing how you feel.

Of course we don't all have the same coping mechanisms. But for someone as thoughtful and eloquent as you are, Akechi-kun... I feel like expressing your thoughts in words could really help you.
