The text consists of excerpts from 2 poems by E.E.Cummings (from 95 Poems)

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go, my dear;
i fear no fate
i want no world
this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
