Poemin spite of everything…
Author / PoetE. E. Cummings
TagsDoom, Farewell, Love, Memory

in spite of everything
which breathes and moves,since Doom
(with white longest hands
neatening each crease)
will smooth entirely our minds
-before leaving my room
i turn,and(stooping
through the morning)kiss
this pillow,dear
where our heads lived and were.
