Finding Forever

She tells me she's found forever in me. Wonder how that could be? Says my 
hands have latches and I hold indiscriminately.  Said she admires my daily 
routine. Says I'm cryptic with understandable ways. Likes my body's definition and 
is additcted to my plug and play. Says the way I put words together is akin to "no 
body's business." Says she enjoys how I sequester what's told in confidence. She 
calls me presidential then takes a little hit. I call her Ms. Lewinsky and buy sun 
dresses as gifts. Says she's found her forever in me. Said she knows it, intuitively.  
Said if she were the moon and I was earth, I'd rotate around putting her first. Said 
the oceans might be altered, and calamity might ensue but my hold is forever,  & 
forever I'll hold you. Asked if I'd say yes if she would have asked? My answer, ask 
me tomorrow. Today I'm busy doing what I do. Holding you is, my daily routine. 
Forever was founded the first time I saw you.
