Absence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHI FJKLM| My cup is empty to night | A |
| Cold and dry are its sides | B |
| Chilled by the wind from the open window | C |
| Empty and void it sparkles white in the moonlight | A |
| The room is filled with the strange scent | D |
| Of wistaria blossoms | E |
| They sway in the moon's radiance | F |
| And tap against the wall | G |
| But the cup of my heart is still | H |
| And cold and empty | I |
| - | |
| When you come it brims | F |
| Red and trembling with blood | J |
| Heart's blood for your drinking | K |
| To fill your mouth with love | L |
| And the bitter sweet taste of a soul | M |
