—
As the sun is scarce
And light is rare
As the sky is dull
And the leaves fall
As the earth is full
And time stands still
As a man is happy
And another is sad
As the ocean is lonely
And water runs dry
As I think closely
And time passes by
As the wind blows
And the train speeds fast
As your heart is racing
And I let you in
As now is golden
And sadness is forgotten
As I hold you closely
And let this be

I’m Mariam — writer, explorer, observer of life’s quiet and loud moments. I started this blog in March 2017 as a self-discovery space, and over the past eight years, it has grown into a home for everything that moves me and hopefully, something that moves you too. Here, you will find poetry, reflections, travel stories, lifestyle pieces, motivation, inspiration and Lagos restaurant reviews all written with honesty and heart. Enjoy!
