Hint to an aspiring poet -- people like to read positive, uplifting messages, stuff that can help them, comfort them, and make sense of their world. They are not so keen on depressing, self-indulgent wallowing in self-pity. They can wallow in all the self-pity they want on their own, alone, in the dark. Don't expect anyone to read your stuff if you never give them anything.
