Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF GG| WHEN we were parted sweet and darkness came | A |
| I used to strike a match and hold the flame | A |
| Before your picture and rould breathless mark | B |
| The answering glimmer of the tiny spark | B |
| That brought to life the magic of your eyes | C |
| Their wistful tenderness their glad surprise | C |
| - | |
| Holding that mimic torch before your shrine | D |
| I used to light your eyes and make them mine | D |
| Watch them like stars set in a lonely sky | E |
| Whisper my heart out yearning for reply | E |
| Summon your lips from far across the sea | F |
| Bidding them live a twilight hour with me | F |
| - | |
| Then when the match was shriveller into gloom | G |
| Lo you were with me in the darkened room | G |
