In all the world there is only one

From whom I wasn't able to run

Who owns my heart to all exclusion

And keep it safe from all intrusion

Who knows my secret, innermost fears

And soothes them all, and who sees my tears

Things I keep hidden from all others

Are not allowed to be kept covered

Though there are things I'd rather not share

My innermost being is laid bare

I have no defense against this one

Though I've come to know that I need none

At last I have a safe place to go

And when I doubt all else, this I know

I'm loved and accepted for all time

By this precious soulmate that is mine
