I’m going to counseling and I want my counselor to know read some of the poetry I have written, so that he can get a better idea of who/how I really am. But I’m not sure as to how to bring it up. Because I don’t want to be like “Oh here is some poetry I have written…read it” That sounds so stupid…and the first poem in the notebook is from 1999 and it’s about something that I haven’t told him about because i have put it behind me and it doesn’t bother me anymore, I know how to explain that…so can someone please help me figure out a way to bring it up so I won’t sound stupid.
