Okay, my first rhyming poem in a while :) Hope you like it, please give feedback on what I can improve :)

..........................

His hair floated eerily

Like ghostly weed

In the lake's black water

His spirit was freed

His eyes stared glassily

Like orbs of light

In the lake's black water

His spirit in the moonlight

His skin glowed softly

Like clean parchment

In the lake's black water

His spirit will torment

His hands reached sadly

Like claws on a beast

In the lake's black water

His spirit will feast

His lips called silently

Like a darkened cave

In the lake's black water

His spirit is saved

His heart beat gently

Like a desperate drum

In the lake's black water

His spirit will come

The water lapped calmly

Like caressing lips

The lake's black water

Which his spirit now sips

And his life ended peacefully

Like the closing of songs

In the lake's Black water

His spirit now belongs

...........................

I nearly ended it on the second to last verse, but then I thought of a better ending, and so put that instead :)
