What do you think of this poem?

I hear an echo from far away
So distant, and yet so near
It ripples on the edge of sound
But rings forth, strong and clear

I hear it on the brim of noise
Amid the fury and the storm
It carries with it soothing notes
A solace for the forlorn.

A wave of something from the sea
Accompanied by wind and salt
I can barely taste the rhapsody;
A song, a siren’s trick that calls.

It screams for you and shouts for me
A sweetly desperate melody.
That yearns for things it cannot have
And to the deep my body leans.

Feelings swift do overwhelm
Sadness from the requiem.
It offers dreams and cool respite
From my pain and shadows dim.

But from this song I turn away
Disinterested in falsities.
I’ve seen the truth; this cry is short
Of anything that it would seem.





Answer :
haunting... I really like it.
The most powerful lines for me are:
Feelings swift do overwhelm
Sadness from the requiem
