e.e. cummings - 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 youhere 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 aparti carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)  ** This poem was read in the wedding scene at the end of the movie "In her Shoes"with Cameron Diaz, Toni Colletteand Shirley McLaine. Beautiful poemand beautiful movie**This beautiful poem is often used at Funeral Services. It would say so much when one loses a partner, husband or wife, as that is what we do when our dear ones pass - we carry them in our hearts!
