This is beautiful, Ayman. In a similar way to yourself, I would say that I create to try and understand my feelings and rationalise them but at the same time just sit with them and accept how I’m feeling. My parents split up in 2021 and although it was for the best and made me the person I am today, it was still a huge emotional toll and one that I initially wanted to brush off and move on with my life. Eventually, though, I found that writing poetry/creative non-fiction actually helped me to come to terms with the whole situation and to this day I still write down any emotions in poetry form when I feel like I’m overwhelmed. Thank you again for sharing this post and I can’t wait to see more! 💘
