RE: Captive (Poetry - The Sims Diaries #1)
There are poems I don't understand myself. Some are meant to be abstract, like art. It would be foolish for anyone to claim to know exactly what the artist of an abstract art intended to express. Or, I may be wrong, since I don't know too much about art. In the end, it's always the reader who needs to have faith in their own interpretation :)
I think the reader's interpretation is a key part of it. I know I have done abstract poems and even I didn't fully know what it meant. I'd have a vague notion, and the readers would often share theirs idea and something would click for me.
I suppose we get to learn about our subconscious more - which can be scary. Ah, writing is the best therapy <3
I agree, writing is the best therapy.
