Love Lies Bleeding Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEFEFD| Love that is dead and buried yesterday | A |
| Out of his grave rose up before my face | B |
| No recognition in his look no trace | B |
| Of memory in his eyes dust dimmed and grey | A |
| While I remembering found no word to say | A |
| But felt my quickened heart leap in its place | B |
| Caught afterglow thrown back from long set days | C |
| Caught echoes of all music passed away | A |
| Was this indeed to meet I mind me yet | D |
| In youth we met when hope and love were quick | E |
| We parted with hope dead but love alive | F |
| I mind me how we parted then heart sick | E |
| Remembering loving hopeless weak to strive | F |
| Was this to meet Not so we have not met | D |
