POEM| Unsafe

POEM| Unsafe

It’s been two years
and six months,
but I still don’t feel
like I belong.

I have no peace,
no serenity,
and I’m always
on the edge
.

I spend
most of my time here,
and it should be
home now,
but I doubt I’d ever feel safe.

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!
