Perversities Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBCB DEFGHG AICICIYet when I am alone my eyes say Come | A |
My hands cannot be still | B |
In that first moment all my senses ache | C |
Cells that were empty fill | B |
The clay walls shake | C |
And unimprisoned thought runs where it will | B |
- | |
Runs and is glad and listens and doubts and glooms | D |
Because you are not here | E |
Then once more rises and is clear again | F |
As sense is never clear | G |
And happy though in vain | H |
These eyes wait and these arms to bring you near | G |
- | |
Yet spite of thought my arms and eyes say Come | A |
Pained with such discontent | I |
For though thought have you all my senses ache | C |
O it was not meant | I |
My body should never wake | C |
But on thought's tranquil bosom rest content | I |
