one true thing

In spite of moments when I doubt the world,
whether or not it is written by fate,
whether or not it was something I deserved,
whether or not the love (platonic, romantic, or even famililal included) or care is mutual,
whether or not I am just jaded, maybe neurotic, or simply foolish;

these two will always be, to quote Anna Quindlen in present tense,
“(She is) my one true thing.”
