After having a conversation with my other half, he expressed that my sexual poetry bothers him. Well not that my writing it is a problem but my sharing it on my blog or fb.. Mainly any social media outlet. Now most write poetry to share it with others and I didn’t see the harm in it plus we are tossing around the idea of a poetry book(s).
But to respect his wishes I said I won’t write anymore sexual poems. He said why would I say that. I said to avoid the situation all together. In my mind I just don’t want this coming back up.. But he knows I have no problem expression myself in that manner. But he feels as though it should be some holding back.
But I write poetry… So am I missing something?!
Unreservedly Me 
I wonder why he has such a problem. It’s an artistic expression.

That is what I said. I write my poems while I’m in that feeling so when people read it is like than can see it or feel how I felt. But it bothers him…and I don’t want it to be a big issue.

I feel you, I’ve had to tone down for the same reasons. One minute she loves and it turns her on. The next minute it’s a problem and everything. Then, it’s why don’t you write poetry to me and all. Lol. I write poetry and look to blog it, the really meaningful poems, cause I figure the day will come where I’ll no longer be here and I’d like to think that my blog is yet another thing I’m remembered by. In the end, I look to be a creative force and poetry (however fearless) plays an important role in that aspect of me.
Your poem was HOT, though. So I feel your people. Lol.

Its the same on my side. Wifey says she love when I write, but then she has an Opinion on what I write. She asks why do i write what i write. I tell her its what I feel. Then she asks “do you have to write so much about us?” I told her i right what i know. Anything else is fake, false or fantasy. I dont appreciate the negativity. So like you. I just leave it alone. Only until the urge is too unbearable, then something comes out.
All that to say. I feel you. So after doing this for years on years.
Yes your wrong, stifling your creativity. No one should have that type of power over you except you.
It only hurts you in the long run. (Speaking from experience)
