Belonging - Haiku

I have not done One Deep Breath for a very long time. Thanks to Patois, whose lonliness prompt was poignant, heart breaking and rather too difficult to face, I visited there again and found - belonging. Rather easier to sum up in seventeen syllables.

Safe in his warm arms,
I am his and he is mine.
Two souls, one heart beat.

This is, I know, almost unbearably sentimental, but belonging just spoke of the Song of Songs to me. I am my beloved's and he is mine. That is belonging. For other haiku check out ODB here

Your haiku epitomizes belonging. It is wonderful. There is absolutely nothing wrong with sentimentality.
