Heart.

This ain't very evident in my daily life but I'm in love with literature. It amazes me how words can struck some strings deep within. And some lines or verses stay in our hearts forever. I wanna share one poem I came across while watching a movie a while back and I can't seem to shake it off my mind. It's by E.E. Cummings and this is how it goes...

I carry your heart,
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.

I don't know about you but I dig this poem, it's a confession of love. It's so romantic, I wanna cry! I read over the web that this is used in a lot of weddings; I can't blame them, this is well written and it's just outpouring with emotion. I'm so touched by it I decided to post it here on my mind's sanctuary, this blog.☺
