Question:
Can I write and is this considered poetry?
I dont know if what I write as personal thoughts is considered poetry. Read this one and give me your feedback.
Out in the dark
I'm alone
thinking of what could be
and what has gone
thinking of tomorrow
and what it holds
thinking of you
wondering will I ever be accepted
in your world that is true
though true it is, it might be cruel
out in the dark
thinking of you
I'm feeling them now
all the things I once vowed
not to allow myself to feel
I'm starting to shake now
afraid I might break now
i'm feeling afraid
wanting to set me straight
but its not something I can do
I've tried and I've failed
what can I do?
out in the dark
thinking of you
I'm hoping you'd accept me
I'm hoping you'd understand
Honestly, I'm hoping it wont show
how vulnerable I am
then I wont need your help
then I'd stop to wonder
and be somebody else
different from what I thought I would be
Lord have mercy!
out in the dark
thinking of you
What are your thoughts?

The very fact that you expressed your thoughts in style, reflects your confidence and ability to organise the thoughts. Dont worry about the form as long as you can create good content. Most of my poems dont rhyme but I have chosen that style because it suits me.
WHY SHE LOVES TO QUARREL
Right in the middle of our fight
Suddenly she started laughing
So contagious is her laughter
Unthinkingly I too smiled
It wiped out my memory at once
Oh! I forgot what I was fighting over
