This thesis will explore the relationship between poetry and the expression of emotions through this creative writing style. Looking deeper at this message design tactic, poetry allows for emotions to be explored and communicated to properly express thoughts, feelings, and ideas. This thesis will offer a deeper analysis of the sharing of emotions in current society, how poetry works within that emotional exchange, and an analysis of some poetry to offer a creative example to this process. By collecting qualitative data and offering specific creative works, this thesis will combine creativity and scholarly context to explore the general communication of emotions and experiences.
