A Wall Flower Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AA BBB CDD EEE BBB

I lounge in the doorway and languish in vainA
While Tom Dick and Harry are dancing with JaneA
-
-
My spirit rises to the music's beatB
There is a leaden fiend lurks in my feetB
To move unto your motion Love were sweetB
-
Somewhere I think some other where not hereC
In other ages on another sphereD
I danced with you and you with me my dearD
-
In perfect motion did our bodies swayE
To perfect music that was heard alwayE
Woe's me that am so dull of foot to dayE
-
To move unto your motion Love were sweetB
My spirit rises to the music's beatB
But ah the leaden demon in my feetB
