owned

"You're mine"
I say, conviction shown.
Words uttered prove
you are my own

Not often
do I find myself
so wholly held.
I am your own

Together
when you're by my side
feelings surge.
There is no other

"My dear"
I whisper, hesitant,
but all is safe.
We have each other.

Although my fear
may leave me prone,
holding you close
I'm not alone

At night
I lie and pen these words.
My heart is yours.
You are my own.
