A Thousand Times

A Thousand Times

A thousand times, I wondered
about this day.

A thousand times, I prayed
for this moment.

a thousand times, I rehearsed
what I was going to say.

A thousand times, I imagined
how things will turn out.

but meeting you exceeded my imaginations
a thousand times.

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!
