Struggling

Struggling

Struggling…I admit
but it’s not only because of you

my days have been long
my nights have been lonely
my present has been tough
and calm seems unlikely

Struggling…I admit
but it’s not only because of you

my days are longer
my nights are lonelier
my present is tougher
and calm seems farther

Struggling…I admit
also, because of you

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!
