Habits Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGG HIJKGG LIMNOP

I haven't written a poem in so longA
I may have forgotten howB
unless writing a poemC
is like riding a bikeD
or swimming upstreamE
or loving youF
it may be a habit that once aquiredG
is never lostG
-
but you say i'm foolishH
of course you love meI
but being loved of courseJ
is not the same as being loved becauseK
or being loved despiteG
or being lovedG
-
-
if you love me whyL
do i feel so lonelyI
and why do i always wake up aloneM
and why am i practicingN
not having you to loveO
i never loved you that wayP
