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.”

    Vibrance Against the Weight of Numbness

    David White’s Sea Creatures and Kiana Jimenez’s A World in Gray intertwine in a haunting contrast of vibrance and numbness. The lively ocean world collides with the poem’s grayscale despair, showing how depression can make even the most vibrant spaces feel isolating, adrift, and suffocating.

  • Fate and Free Will

    Are our lives written in the stars or shaped by our own hands? This post explores the tension between destiny and free will, weaving philosophy, faith, and resilience. At Poetic Bipolar Mind, these questions echo as lived truths: choice as resistance, faith as anchor, and creativity as survival.
