The answer is: united.

Throughout this beautiful sonnet Neruda speaks of his beloved as something to be cherished as his most intimate secret and treasure. In the final lines, Neruda makes it known that, to him, there is no I without her, that her hand on his chest, almost touching his heart, is his own hand and, should he close his eyes, her eyes would be closed too, perhaps entwined in dreams, or, alas, together even in death.
