UNDERSTANDING

UNDERSTANDING

A Poem by sette

THE CREATIVE JUICES 
KEEP ON POURING
THAT I CAN'T STOP WRITING.

THERE WERE THOSE TIMES
JUST LIKE THIS ONE,
THAT I FEEL MY WRITING
WAS MY HAVEN.

MY HAVEN FROM ALL THE HURTS
I HAVE EXPERIENCED LOVING YOU.

YOU, OF ALL PEOPLE
DID NOT UNDERSTAND
ABOUT MY WORK OR MY WRITING.

IT WAS ALWAYS A BATTLE
BASED ON YOUR MALE EGO AND
INSECURITY.

IT WAS TOO TIRING 
UNTIL I DON'T HAVE ANY RECOURSE
BUT TO LET YOU GO.

i believe if the one you love doesn't understand your poetry maybe the don't want or have the time to understand you. I think being understood, and valued for what, and who we are is so important for a better love.. Thanks for sharing

you are absolutely right in all counts my friend
Writing, a magical world in which we can choose reality or fantasy. It is a safe haven for writers, we control the genre, form and words. What we cannot control and my favorite thing about writing is we cannot control how others interpret. Love is a powerful thing, so elusive and finicky. You have shared perfectly the power play that exists when the imagination is greeted by a dominant force, in this case portrayed by a male. Do we drop our art or drop the dominant force? Wow, this one really got me thinking, great job. Cheers!

thanks karen i missed your poems
Easy to find safe haven in writing. Writing won't break your heart.
"THERE WERE THOSE TIMES
JUST LIKE THIS ONE,
THAT I FEEL MY WRITING
WAS MY HAVEN."
