<human>: So earlier today I wrote a poem filled with a lot of metaphor and figurative language, but it was taken completely literally but my dad and mom's aunt. Here's a little backstory.

So growing up, I was never really SUPER religious, and neither was my family. About two years ago, I got engaged to a girl I really cared about who was pretty religious. I'm not saying that I became religious *for* her, but she did help me start building some sense of spirituality. Again, I never really got too serious with it, but I did start to learn more about my religion and stuff after we got together, which I don't think was such a terrible thing. Especially because she's now my ex-fiancé and that sense of spirituality really helped me through the breakup. Now fast forward to today, and I wrote a little poem, because I do that sometimes, which was filled with metaphors and figurative speech about getting closer to God and what this new sense of spirituality means to me. This was literally all expressed in metaphor and figurative language. I was an English major: Figurative language is the only language I communicate in. Anyway, so my FU was posting this poem on Facebook as a Facebook status to share with my friends and family. When I woke up this morning, my dad had a nice long chat with me about how I shouldn't be getting so extreme in religion. I asked where this was coming from because I nearly choked on my breakfast and he said my poem. That's when I explained the metaphors to him. Turns out, he doesn't appreciate figurative language like I do. Subsequently, I went onto my Facebook status and read a comment posted by my mom's aunt who essentially said the same thing to me.

And now I'm pretty sure I just want to take it down because no one loves my metaphors.

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Wrote a poem about being close to God that was filled with metaphor and figurative language, which was apparently not so apparent, and made my family think I'm a whack job.
