There are three traditional styles of sonnet: English, or Shakespearean; Italian, or Petrarchan; and Russian, or Onegin. The distinguishing feature of each is the rhyme scheme.

English: ABAB CDCD EFEF GG
Italian: ABBA ABBA CDECDE (sometimes CDEEDC)
Russian: ABAB CCDD EFFEGG

Note that these are all fourteen-line poems, while "Love" has eighteen. It doesn't come anywhere close to being a sonnet, of any kind.
