POEM| Are You Happy Now?

POEM| Are You Happy Now?

Are you happy now
That we’re barely speaking
And walking on eggshells around each other

Is it better now
That I don’t know how you’re doing
Or if you’ve been eating regularly

Are you happy now
That I need you
And I’m losing my mind because I can’t tell you

Is it better now
That we’re both lost
And you still wouldn’t apologize

Are you happy now
That there’s so much distance between us
And we have become strangers sharing an apartment

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!
