Over My Dead Body

Over My Dead Body

A Poem by Jack Kennedy
"

This is a letter to HER which is a entendre!

"
How am I feeling, it doesn't matter
Cause you know I'm okay
Still I ask "why do you worry"
When you know I'm the same
Even though you don't love me
They're trying to take you,
Take you away from me
Only Over My Dead Body...

...

Nothing will ever stop us 
Together it is just me and you
You don't and won't ever love me,
But I will forever and ever love you
I will spend eternity chasing you
Chasing the thought of us
We've met like a head-on collision
Not being able to separate since 
I've fallen a bit and you've noticed
Now they want to take you away
Take you far away from me
Only Over My Dead Body...

While I have often attributed my muse to others, It is ultimately inside of me and despite that fact I see my muse as of the fairer sex. I refuse to be separated from this passenger and will fight tooth and nail to keep it, so this piece speaks to that tenacity in me.

Kudos and keep it up.

I liked the poem.
"Nothing will ever stop us
Together it is just me and you
You don't and won't ever love me,
But I will forever and ever love you"
The above lines I do understand. When love overtakes us. We won't give up. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Nawe this really leaves me with a morbid feeling... which means you have done your job well.
These lines "made" the poem. They really brought it home for me...

You don't and won't ever love me,

But I will forever and ever love you

I will spend eternity chasing you

Chasing the thought of us

Thanks again

It reads like a kind of obsession, with deep determination to keep what has been attained. It has a darkness to it that can feel quite intense too. Nice work, Jack. Penny

Thank you very much :)! I'm happy you're happy!
Yes, clever double entendre. If you interpret "her" as being Fame, she can be a cruel, cold mistress as well, eh? I like this one a lot, Jack.
