I often
forget
how lucky we are
to be able to
wake up together
pray together
go about our days together
eat together
and
sleep together
even though
we’re three thousand miles apart

I wrote this poem some months ago for Coucou magazine’s second issue. The theme of the issue is intimacy in the digital age and I enjoyed writing this. You can read the whole issue here.

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!
