for some reason i like This is someone's fault for writing about Zombie poetry. better for the title though it doesn't intimate wuthering heights.
some good sounds at play within the poem. i mentioned only one line; there are more. i thought the first half excellent. the images while not unplease had a sadness to them. the latter half though weaker showed the yearning of woman to be taken away.
i think the latter part could use a little of the stronger imagery you play with in the first part, if only to make the anguish/longing more painful.

I’ll wait down by the river
where willow leaves lay a yellow shroud good alliteration and assonance and consonance if you count the ll's as such. also a good image
over water, and slow clouds seem to catch is the comma and [and] and [seem to] needed?
on bare-armed trees. From the cemetery wall love the step from catch to bare armed.
I’ll watch the sun slink down behind
Monaro hills, throwing shadows that creep
over the plain, towing darkness. i thought about this line and it works. it's like a hand that pulls a sheet up in bed.
I’ll wait until night takes over
and the evening chorus has quietened.
I’ll strain to hear you coming, to see
you break away from the dark
and step to me, smiling, your hand
held out to touch mine. This time
take me with you. I’ll wait.
