Dead Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EBF EBF

Is it a dream is it a memoryA
That underneath some warmer moon of yoreB
We dreamt of love we dreamt forevermoreB
To make of Love our immortalityA
-
Alas alas for all the moons of oldC
And all the golden suns are blind with gloomD
To thee alone in some forgotten tombD
The worm with clinging kisses wan and coldC
-
Mocking my love came long ago thine eyesE
That were the mirrors of mine own desireB
Hold everlasting darkness life and lustF
-
Are shadows in the lonely night that liesE
Mute on thy lips and Love's triumphant fireB
Is one for me with thy forgotten dustF
