e. e. cummings
What concerns me fundamentaly is a meteoric burlesk melodrama, born of the immemorial adage love will find a way.
e. e. cummings
And now you are and I am and we're a mystery which will never happen again.
e. e. cummings
Really unreal world, will you perhaps do the breathing for me while I am away?
e. e. cummings
Nobody else can be alive for you nor can you be alive for anybody else.
e. e. cummings
Love is a place & through this place of love move (with brightness of peace) all places yes is a world & in this world of yes live (skillfully curled) all worlds
e. e. cummings
I spill my bright incalculable soul
e. e. cummings
somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond
e. e. cummings
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
e. e. cummings
No evil is so worse than worst you fall in hate with love.
