I sent you so many messages
without sending you any.
I called you a thousand times
without calling you at all.
I wrote you a letter
without letting you read it.
I drove by
without coming in.
I left so many things unsaid
and now we’re out of time.

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!
