Are You Loving Enough? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCABCDDEE FGHFGHIIJJK

Are you loving enough There is some one dearA
Some one you hold as the dearest of allB
In the holiest shrine of your heartC
Are you making it known Is the truth of it clearA
To the one you love If death's quick callB
Should suddenly tear you apartC
Leaving no time for a long farewellD
Would you feel you had nothing to tellD
Nothing you wished you had said beforeE
The closing of that dark doorE
-
Are you loving enough The swift years flyF
Oh faster and faster they hurry awayG
And each one carries its deadH
The good deed left for the by and byF
The word to be uttered another dayG
May never be done or saidH
Let the love word sound in the listening earI
Nor wait to speak it above a bierI
Oh the time for telling your love is briefJ
But long long long is the time for griefJ
Are you loving enoughK
