When I Go Alone At Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AB CD ED

WHEN I go alone at night to my love tryst birds do not sing the wind does not stir the houses on both sides of the street stand silentA
It is my own anklets that grow loud at every step and I am ashamedB
-
When I sit on my balcony and listen for his footsteps leaves do not rustle on the trees and the water is still in the river like the sword on the knees of a sentry fallen asleepC
It is my own heart that beats wildly I do not know how to quiet itD
-
When my love comes and sits by my side when my body trembles and my eyelids droop the night darkens the wind blows out the lamp and the clouds draw veils over the starsE
It is the jewel at my own breast that shines and gives light I do not know how to hide itD
