"dive for dreams" by ee cummings

dive for dreams
or a slogan may topple you(trees are their rootsand wind is wind)
trust your heartif the seas catch fire(and live by lovethough the stars walk backward)
honour the pastbut welcome the future(and dance your deathaway at the wedding)
never mind a worldwith its villains or heroes(for good likes girlsand tomorrow and the earth)
in spite of everythingwhich breathes and moves, since Doom(with white longest handsneating each crease)will smooth entirely our minds
-before leaving my roomi turn, and (stoopingthrough the morning) kissthis pillow, dearwhere our heads lived and were.

silently if, out of not knowable

silently if, out of not knowable
night's utmost nothing,wanders a little guess
(only which is this world)more my life does
not leap than with the mystery your smile
sings or if(spiralling as luminous
they climb oblivion)voices who are dreams,
less into heaven certainly earth swims
than each my deeper death becomes your kiss
losing through you what seemed myself,i find
selves unimaginably mine;beyond
sorrow's own joys and hoping's very fears
yours is the light by which my spirit's born:
yours is the darkness of my soul's return
-you are my sun,my moon,and all my stars
