So Deep

I know
of a place
where a house
is a home
and one who stands
behind me
even when
I’ve been wrong
who sees
beyond my faults
and takes me
who I am
where I am
no disappointment
and I know
just where I stand
it is a place
of calm
this place
that I know
where my walls
are broken down
in trust
just how deep
will this go

Lady,
A warm, enfolding place, this.
But then the last lines?  The uncertainty.  The unknown.
You have a talent for finishing, I think.
