The story name comes from a song of the same name by Matthew Good Band, which I adore 100 percent, and the song is just amazing and I knew I had to use the name somehow. So please read and review and I love you all!
I do not own friends/actors/characters/Matthew Good Band, but I do own a few of their albums...not good enough? Damn.

I'm watching him in the mirror, love in his eyes and I just know those are the eyes that inspire symphonies.
I look back at him, through the reflective panel that is the mirror and I'm in love.
I look at him and its love.
A love story for the two of us, dancing in the music that his eyes inspire.
When I look at him, I hear music; see lyrics and music notes – on crisp white stave paper, just waiting to age – and I want to, no, need to sing, if only to get that desperation out of me; the desperation that is making me cry, my left hand pressed against the cool glass of the mirror, stroking his reflective face.
My wedding ring, sparkling in the light.
When I look at him, I'm inspired to write a symphony, but I'm looking in the mirror, not at him and the person I'm looking at is an apparition and I haven't felt his breath on my cheek for three months now, because the dead are unable to breathe and I know this and the tears only fall harder.
The apparition leaves, taking the music and I wonder and long for them to return, but I know there will be no symphonies from me, only a barrage of tears. My wedding ring sparkles one last time and it's a love story for no one.
