I lock my eyes to their counterparts- the alter-ego of my ego. I stare into the mirror not to remark on my beauty, or the flaws that can seem etched into the glass, but because I can't trust any other window, to look into my soul as deeply. And when I look at this mere reflection, there is a love so superficially profound, that can only be understood when pupils match up perfectly.
