The answer to a question not many know

Is not anything you'll get here or even below

It's just a title which came to me suddenly

If I knew the answer, then I'd share it free



But I suspect it really has something to do 

With constancy, consideration, and clues

About understanding partners thru talk

The very most important element of all



For if you stop communicating ... then

You come apart, and it'll never mend

So if you do want to hold things together

Bear this in mind, and keep it tethered
