Hauntings
You haunt me in the days
You haunt me in the nights
You haunt me in my wake
You haunt me through those eyes
***
Eyes that stare so deep
Eyes that seem so pure
Eyes that cut through me
Eyes that cause my fall
***
Fallen yet unyielding,
Fallen yet so proud.
Fallen I have been.
Fallen I won’t bow.
***
Bound to cause such pain,
Bound to drown us out.
Bound to meet again
Yet time may just run out.
***

You have a great flow and love the repetition.
I love the progression into verbs as the head word of each line. Works so well and builds the tension perfectly 🤍
Is there a name for poems that have the lines in a stanza start with the same word? Really creates a flow
I love how poignant this was! I also loved the repetition but not really sure of the theme. Fantastic poem!
