By Now So Sick Of Waiting Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDDC EEF GFG| By now so sick of waiting I'm by now | A |
| so beaten by the pain by now the burn | B |
| won't stop and he forgets so quickly how | A |
| I trust in his return and how I yearn | B |
| - | |
| that I cry out for her to give me rest | C |
| she of the pallid face and reaper's knife | D |
| whose chilly touch defines the edge of life | D |
| so hard the need that grows within my breast | C |
| - | |
| But she is deaf and gives me no relief | E |
| as if she spurned my being mad with grief | E |
| and deafly he denies himself to me | F |
| - | |
| My eyes are always wet and weeping fills | G |
| this villa and its shore with misery | F |
| while he lives smugly up there in his hills | G |
