I Am Shut Out Of Mine Own Heart Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHI JKJK ABAB| I am shut out of mine own heart | A |
| because my love is far from me | B |
| nor in the wonders have I part | A |
| that fill its hidden empery | C |
| - | |
| the wildwood of adventurous thought | D |
| and lands of dawn my dream had won | E |
| the riches out of Faery brought | D |
| are buried with our bridal sun | E |
| - | |
| And I am in a narrow place | F |
| and all its little streets are cold | G |
| because the absence of her face | F |
| has robb'd the sullen air of gold | G |
| - | |
| My home is in a broader day | H |
| at times I catch it glistening | I |
| thro' the dull gate a flower'd play | H |
| and odour of undying spring | I |
| - | |
| the long days that I lived alone | J |
| sweet madness of the springs I miss'd | K |
| are shed beyond and thro' them blown | J |
| clear laughter and my lips are kiss'd | K |
| - | |
| and here from mine own joy apart | A |
| I wait the turning of the key | B |
| I am shut out of mine own heart | A |
| because my love is far from me | B |
