i carry your heart with me

i went through some of my poetry and i ran into dis one. dis is from ee cummings and it is one of my favourite.one of the best. simple, yet so meaningful. i gave this poetry to my bf when i left for australia, last february.

I Carry Your Heart With Me
by EE 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)
