This can be hard and frustrating!! I have found that sometimes doing artwork, such as painting, can help us express what we cannot verbally describe. Also, I like to find songs that have lyrics similar to what I'm feeling because I tend to see those as explaining things better than I can in that moment.

Find a way to express them which does not require words.
Keeping them inside would do you more harm than good.
And also words sometimes tend to spoil the actual feelings,
expressing them non-verbally might prove a boon to your soul. :)

Try to find out why you might feel this way, what has happened lately and how that should have made you feel. Drawing might help a lot to and listening to calming music. Talk to somebody, even though you might not get a solution but this will make you feel better and lift your mood.

Try to find people who have the same feelings. Having people to relate to can be really helpful in a situation like this one. Discussion about your feelings can make you feel better in many cases.

I talk to people and tell them that I'm finding it difficult to express myself and then I would write a poem, with words around my feelings

Draw something that helps you describe your emotions in a way you understand. If you can't get it out on writing, getting your feelings down on paper makes it a lot easier for you to understand yourself and put your feelings in perspective. Be creative!

Try writing your feelings down on a piece of paper or anything where you can write them down. Try to describe what it is, how it feels, what makes you feel that way, why do you feel that way, what you think of the feeling and what to do about the feeling. This will help you to understand your feelings and articulate them better.

I would try to figure out what happened that triggered the emotion. Sometimes that can help us to determine what makes sense to have felt after that event.

Sometimes talking these feelings over can help, even if you can't be specific, being vague WITH someone, and talking to them about it allows you to better find an answer to the feelings. Writing down exactly what your thoughts are as well can be a great method, even if your thoughts are jumbled, sometimes something clear comes out of that :)
