One Of Us Two Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACAADAEFAFA| The day will dawn when one of us shall hearken | A |
| In vain to hear a voice that has grown dumb | B |
| And morns will fade noons pale and shadows darken | A |
| While sad eyes watch for feet that never come | B |
| One of us two must sometime face existence | C |
| Alone with the memories that but sharpen pain | A |
| And these sweet days shall shine back in the distance | C |
| Like dreams of summer dawns in nights of rain | A |
| One of us two with tortured heart half broken | A |
| Shall read long treasured letters through salt tears | D |
| Shall kiss with anguished lips each cherished token | A |
| That speaks of these love crowned delicious years | E |
| One of us two shall find all light all beauty | F |
| All joy on earth a tale for ever done | A |
| Shall know henceforth that life means only duty | F |
| O God O God have pity on that one | A |
