This is NOT a 3 stanza "closed form" poem. It is a sonnet from the sequence 'Idea' republished in 1619. Also Anne being his girlfriend was a theory not a fact. Some theory's say that she didnt love him back and this poem just shows his passion for her and his inner emotion of pain and sadness of being alone as Drayton did die single. It implies this theory in the line "I myself can free". It does however imply also that he does want to contine loving her and could also have implications of his own death.
