The Mirror Keeps What I Had to Lose: “What the Mirror Keeps” — New on Wattpad

Woman in a dark robe looking at her reflection in an ornate mirror

A new poem is live on Wattpad.

“What the Mirror Keeps” is about the face that meets you in the glass — and every self it has archived along the way. The girl at seventeen, unbroken. The woman at midnight. The one who begged, and the one who swore she would not hide. This piece was written for the page, a new addition to the weekly Wattpad series, where a poem or a story arrives every Friday.

A taste of it:

“But the mirror keeps what I had to lose
and hands me the woman I chose to be.”

  • I Am Your Disease

    I am your disease — a voice that devours hope, strips honor, and waits in shadow. It promises ruin, claims your pleasures, and whispers you back into darkness. For every step toward healing, it watches, patient and furious, ready to reclaim you. This is the confession of that relentless enemy now.

  • Faith After the Storm

    Grief can hollow us, but sometimes the courage of another lights a way forward. In a grieving parent’s raw words, I found faith that doesn’t erase sorrow but teaches us how to live with it. Her story reminds us: love remains, and community carries us through loss.
