i carry your heart with me...

I love e.e. cummings. I like that he writes in lowercase and that his format is weird. My favorite poem is his most famous, "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)"

In true love-stricken-like-a-teenager fashion, I thought of this poem today because I've been with my sweetest boyfriend for 6 months. And because I am the biggest sap ever, I decided to blog about it. He's the best and this is the happiest I have been in years and years. I love his family, his friends, his soul, and everything he is about. He's the most genuine, sweet, honest person I have ever met and I am very blessed to call him mine. I hope to write about us again in another 6 months, and many months after that. He's the best thing that's ever been placed into my life, and I am very thankful for him. He makes me laugh and fall more in love with him everyday. He's my everyday present from God :)

Basically, I love my Nate.
