[ WP ] A magical mirror shows your reflection and your future soulmate . You only see your reflection .

He's there. He's not what I was expecting, but I did n't know what I was expecting when I decided to look. But I like him very much even though he does n't know me yet. 
 
 But the mirror is just that - a mirror. Something to look at when curiosity peeks. If I digress to what my life has become and shake off the image in my mind, I can tolerate just looking. 
 
 But my hand bears the weight of a band when I look down. The hamper is overflowing. The dishes lay in heaps in the sink. The toilets need scrubbing. A baby cries in the other room - I just wanted to escape for a moment. 
 
 Should I receive this a gift? Should I go find him? Should I drop this madness and alter a course for the one who I know I could love for the rest of my life? He's right there... in the mirror. 
 
 My fingers trace the frame and hold his image in my mind. The knowledge that he exists is enough for my heart to hold fast to. But will it ever be enough? 
 
 I stare, and stare. The baby cries. I cry. And then I notice... 
 
 He wears a band too. 
 
 Sometimes, true love does n't always get to be together.
