How do I start writing? I have a hard time expressing myself. And would love to learn how to write it down.

You learn to write by first learning to read. Read what interests you. And figure out why it interests you. Then read more. And taking a class or two on reading and writing will help a lot.

I would suggest to read the Poetry that is posted to see the different ways some write poetry..

Then put your feelings to paper..

If you want words that rhyme a good site to use is Rhyme Zone. You can put in a word to see what rhymes with the word you want it to rhyme with then decide what your next sentence will be..

It may take a few tries in order to write down how you feel or want it to read.

Make sure that you use a spell checker and correct punctuation. So when others read your poetry it flows as it should...

Go for it... I had never posted any poetry till I joined this site..

Let others know your learning and they will give you pointers..

And all Poetry does not have to Rhyme, it is up to the Poet...

Good luck and enjoy ~~
