the glue of us

what is the glue
that keeps
us together, is it love,
sex, kissing skills,
money, power?
location?
is it mutual interests.
bird watching,
or growing
flowers?
reading the same books,
listening to
the same music,
going to bed
at the same hour?
is it looks, the way
she smiles,
the way
she's honest
and forthright, 
how she melts your
butter, or is it,
how you never catch
her in a lie,
or is it her
cooking skills, her
fried chicken and mashed
potatoes, her
apple pie?
