Don’t blame yourself
for compromising
for being vulnerable
for letting yourself feel
Don’t blame yourself
for enjoying the sweet talk
for going the extra mile
for losing your sleep time
Don’t blame yourself
for getting lost
for hoping this was it
for ignoring the red flags
Don’t blame yourself
for trying

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!
