My life has no meaning,

I only mirror your moves.

My only calling;

to make everything twofold.

When you smile,

I beam.

When you laugh,

I cachinnate,

but am clueless as to your happiness.

As you lift up your hand,

I follow your move,

And raise it one.

Everything about us is identical.

What makes us different?

I’m just an image,

And you,

You are genuine.

It would be pretty hard to be someone's reflection, I guess. It's good to look from a bunch of different perspectives when your writing.
