To Music Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGHIJKJLMHN N

Music breathing of statues PerhapsA
silence of paintings You language where all languageB
ends You timeC
standing vertically on the motion of mortal heartsD
-
Feelings for whom O you the transformationE
of feelings into what into audible landscapeF
You stranger music You heart spaceG
grown out of us The deepest space in usH
which rising above us forces its way outI
holy departureJ
when the innermost point in us standsK
outside as the most practiced distance as the otherJ
side of the airL
pureM
boundlessH
no longer habitableN
