The Greatest Love of All

As I muse at what I now see,
Is it really you staring back at me?

Are we those twins coupled together?
Two sides of the same coin, is that the matter?

Are you just another name for me?
Are you to all what I’m in essence to be?

Are you,dear life,a reflection of me?
Is the epithet of ‘love’ another face of thee?

Are love and life always mirror images to be?
Why then it took so long to see?

This indecision about the greatest love of all,
One look at the mirror and the answer shall befall!
