e.e. cummings

I'm just sitting on my couch and my belly jostles every 3-5 seconds because my little man has the hiccups again. Drew's gone to work and really there are only so many nights I have left where I get to be this close to my wonderful son. In just a few short weeks he will be his own person on the outside. 
In her shoes was on tv and my very favorite poem is in that movie. 
I used to dedicate it to my wonderful husband because honestly It will always be about him. 
BUT 
as i sit here feeling him wiggle in irritation that he just can't stop hiccuping, and I hear the poem being read out loud at the same time, I realize that in a way it's now also about him. 
As much as I really can't wait to meet him and get to know his unique personality and character, I really am going to miss having him so close and having him be so easy to take care of :) 



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)
