Write a Poem that experiments with form or structure
Bullet points, indentations, spacing - put it in the form of a letter or in the form of the subject your speaking of. Anything that breaks away from conventional stanza formatting.

Show her the moisture behind your foundation

___don’t hide the cracks for they are beautiful roads that lead to your heart.

Leave the stains of salted tears upon your cheeks

___those stains are your organic tattoo that tells your story

Let her breathe life into your veins

___no matter how exposed you are

Show her how broken you really are

___even broken stars still glisten in the night

Allow your darkness to drip from your lips

___into the kiss that will resuscitate your heart
