I carry your heart with me

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 the 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)

E. E. Cummings (1894-1962)
