"i carry your heart with me"

Nov 06, 2008 13:58


A week ago, while I was all depressed with Tash in the computer labs, I LJ-searched for "desserts" just to look at pretty things. Among the over hundred response I got back was a lil sweet community called pearlsandtea.

Anyways, as I was browsing through some of the entries just, I came across this absolutely beautiful poem by ee cummings. It was so familiar that I googled it up and Tash saw it. She liked it too and reminded me where I first heard it: In Her Shoes

For just about anyone. (:

"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)"

the things i love, pretty lil things, i'm amused are u?
