Mirroring

I am your mirror.  When you look into my eyes,

you see how beautiful you are.

When you enter a room, my heart lifts up to meet you;

a smile of greeting lights me up from within.

I am your mirror.  When you look into my eyes,

you see love, as my soul embraces yours,

revealing to you just how wonderful you are:

my friend, my heart, my son.
