i carry your heart with me

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 the 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 may reveal just how uncool a kid I am by admitting it, but I do love how movies can give music and poetry different worlds of life.

Case in point, the soundtracks to Cruel Intentions, D.E.B.S., and Garden State, as well as W.H. Auden's "Stop All the Clocks" featured in Four Weddings and a Funeral, and Elizabeth Bishop's "One Art" and ee cummings' "i carry your heart with me" featured in In Her Shoes.
