A Mirror for Two

"I'm just a mirror, you know?"

He responded when I asked why he was sulking.

It's a dialogue I always use on him.

I show you the same attitude you show me.

The boy is growing brains.

It's got me thinking...

If we are each others' mirrors,

Then why aren't we working on ourselves?

So if I get better...

You would, too?

So I have to meal myself,

And you, heal you,

So we heal our relationship?

Is this how it's going to work?

But...

Of course, there's a but.

I'm going for therapy

Working harder,

Learning the things you like.

What are you doing?

I probably shouldn't be...

Comparing our personal growths.

But I'm sorry..

I need to SEE things to believe it.

I need to see what you're doing

To rebuild my trust,

To make sure the connection in our marriage,

LASTS.

I need to see you doing the same thing as me,

Or better.

Because,

We're each others' mirrors,

Right?

Did I get this wrong?
