And Yet

and yet you still haunt me
and your eyes are still there
and your heart’s still beating
and my heart is still bare

and yet you still haunt me
and I still see you cry
and another day’s coming

and I still wonder why

    "and yet you still haunt me" was a great way to start the poem. It engages the reader more, making him/her dig for answeres, what happened, who is this person who is still haunting, and why. I was hoping to get the answers as i read more, but no luck. lol. I think this adds more beauty to the poem. It is something that only you, the poet, knows, and for us to wonder, as we relate it to our own lives.
    Well done.
    "and I still wonder why" the speaker of the poem is hurting.
    keep writing.
    be well.

    good

    sad to say the least...I hope this is not a personal poem...at first I thought that the person may have died, but .....duh.....the line your heart still beating...guess that should have clued me in eh?...I think that the repition of the words 'and yet' give the feeling of deperate sadness and disbelief....nice poem.
