POEM| When Time Didn’t Matter

POEM| When Time Didn’t Matter

I long for the days
when everyday felt the same
and it was okay
because time didn’t matter

I long for the days
when the sight of the sun
only meant it was daytime
and nothing more

I long for the days
I never kept count
of what day of the week it was
and when the weekend would arrive


I long for the days
I wasn’t bothered
if I spent a day doing nothing
because time didn’t matter

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!
