Only Until This Cigarette Is Ended Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD

Only until this cigarette is endedA
A little moment at the end of allB
While on the floor the quiet ashes fallB
And in the firelight to a lance extendedA
Bizarrely with the jazzing music blendedA
The broken shadow dances on the wallB
I will permit my memory to recallB
The vision of you by all my dreams attendedA
And then adieu farewell the dream is doneC
Yours is a face of which I can forgetD
The color and the features every oneC
The words not ever and the smiles not yetD
But in your day this moment is the sunC
Upon a hill after the sun has setD
