Near But Far Away Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBD EFFGGF| She wavered stopped and turned methought her eyes | A |
| The deep grey windows of her heart were wet | B |
| Methought they softened with a new regret | B |
| To note in mine unspoken miseries | C |
| And as a prayer from out my heart did rise | A |
| And struggled on my lips in shame's strong net | B |
| She stayed me and cried Brother our lips met | B |
| Her deawr hands drew me into Paradise | D |
| - | |
| Sweet seemed that kiss till thence her feet were gone | E |
| Sweet seemed the word she spake while it might be | F |
| As wordless music But truth fell on me | F |
| And kiss and word I knew and left alone | G |
| Face to face seemed I to a wall of stone | G |
| While at my back there beat a boundless sea | F |
