e. e. cummings
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
First of all, I thought I would add this poem because it doesn't have a dark side or ending to it (like most of the poems I give to you). But I also like it because of its rhythm, the way e. e. cummings adds the thoughts in the parenthesis brings out the feeling of love and longing that rambles through the heart and mind. The phrases in parenthesis also give an explanation to his statements or declarations of love....Just lovely.

I just totally love where he says,
"higher than soul can hope or mind can hide"
i love his language uses lol.
the phraze "i carry your heart (into my heart)" is my favorite part because it sounds romatic haha
This poem truly touching my heart.
When the author said,
"no fate....whatever a sun will always sing is you "
which indirectly states that he carries her heart with him everytime..
