true lovers: one more from eec

Oh, one more, just one more, from this cummings selected poetry collection (well, until the next one).
#82 
true lovers in each happening of their hearts
live longer than all which and every who;
despite what fear denies,what hope asserts,
what falsest both disprove by proving true 
(all doubts,all certainties,as villains strive
and heroes through the mere mind's poor pretend
--grim comics of duration:only love
immortality occurs beyond the mind) 
such a forever is love's any now
and her each here is such an everywhere,
even more true would truest lovers grow
if out of midnight dropped more suns that are 
(yes;and if time should ask into his was
all shall,their eyes would never miss a yes)
