It's very usual in Spanish, when you speak formally, to use "usted" instead of "tú" (or "vos" in Argentina). In that case you say "mi alma le pertenece" o "mi alma le pertence sólo a usted".

Aclaración: En Argentina, hoy en día ningún hombre trata de "usted" a la persona amada o a la mujer que se busca conquistar. Antaño tal vez, mi abuelo se refería así a mi abuela en las cartas de amor... but not anymore.

Un saludo mi amigo!


Hola Merce!

Estaba confundido but now I understand.

Gracias!!!
