Because Ethics is Just a Class and Love is but a Dream

Because ethics is just a class 

and love is but a dream.

And pain is never an excuse 

no matter how great.

And me?

I’m just bursting at the seams.

And this, this is reality.

Know it well.

Do you know it well?

Know you me?

Because ethics is just a class

and love is but a dream.

I'm beginning to love your style of writing, Diana... Your words just flow out in effortless grace. :)

Uhm.. I have just a question. What do you mean by "Know you me?" This is the first time I've encountered this line and it sounds weird. Thank you so much! ;)

[Diana]

Thank you so much. Glad you think it flows.

It's kind of like asking "Do you know me?" or even ("You think you know me?") only the sentence structure is reversed.

[Azure Montessa (Blue)]

That helps. Thank you., Diana. :)

Your poetry takes my mind on new and exciting adventures each time I read. Very creative style to your work. Love it.

[Diana]

Thank you. Glad you're enjoying the journey.

yes, but unfortunately ...love has schooled me one too many times...

and my ethics has bent slightly.

[Diana]

Hah hah. I think I can see how that could be.

"Because ethics is just a class

It is thought provoking. I like if you had said a little more about that concept in those two lines. You can make it like a philosophical one. But it is your choice...Splendid...:)

Thanks for your insight. I may edit this one. I'm still not entirely sure where I was going with this...

[Sami Khalil]

It is up to you. You are welcome...:)
