Time Capsule

Time Capsule

I want to go back
To change things
To a new life
With no worries

I want to stop time
To tell you
All I haven’t
Had a chance to say

I want to take care of you
All the time
As much as
You have taken care of me

I want to make you proud
Cook your favorite dish
Better than you
With you smiling sheepishly 

I want to see the world
With you
Take you everywhere
And have the best holidays 

I want to give you
All my love
Everything you want
And may ever need

About Me

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!
