Rhyme Scheme: A BCBC DEFE GFHF IJBJ

Written to the Most Beautiful Woman in the WorldA
-
-
My Sweetheart is the TRUTH BEYOND THE MOONB
And never have I been in love with WomanC
Always aspiring to be set in tuneB
With one who is invisible inhumanC
-
O laughing girl cold TRUTH has stepped betweenD
Spoiling the fevers of your virgin faceE
Making your shining eyes but lead and clayF
Mocking your brilliant brain and lady's graceE
-
TRUTH haunted me the day I wooed and lostG
The day I wooed and won or wooed in playF
Tho' you were Juliet or RosalindH
Thus shall it be forever and a dayF
-
I doubt my vows tho' sworn on my own bloodI
Tho' I draw toward you weeping soul to soulJ
I have a lonely goal beyond the moonB
Ay beyond Heaven and Hell I have a goalJ
