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 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

I chose this poem because e.e. cummings is my favorite poet. I love his lack of punctuation. I think the messages he creates are much more subtle but they still portray a strong image and message. The relationship is described as if the two people are almost as one from being so close.  I also love how Cummings writes a line and then adds on to the line with a description in parentheses. I think the image that the two lovers are intertwined is beautiful and very well written.
