Love Lies Bleeding Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEFEFDLove 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 |
