It's more than just arbitrary rhymes. A lot more symbolism is going on in that poem, "The Raven". Though not as rigidly as Poe and Baudelaire claim when they attack emotional inspiration. Their occasional attacks on inspiration contradict their actions, and is just part of their philosophical schtick. That's what I say after having used both of them as characters in my own stories.
It could be you're using those last lines as allusions. But it would probably be best if they were something else. Since they're so close to that old poem.
