Her vision was like a mirage in a hot desert land, distortedly beautiful and mighty to behold. Once glance could bring all great men down to their knees, beware of the Poison Ivy.

Numb. She wet her face with the frosty water and stared at her cold reflection in the mirror. Happiness, she can’t remember what that tasted like.

"Who are you? Tell me who is Hasiya?" My eyes rested on the dark pair of eyes that was inches away from my face and was deeply fixated on me...his eyes were a pool of concern and curiosity. His question sounded like something I had heard and responded to a million times before but when Tope [...]
Hey guys, so I am keeping today' s post short and simple. This week is Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW). Mental Health is something I am very passionate about and not many people know this about me. I've been wanting to write and talk about this for so long but I never had the chance [...]

Many times I’ve asked myself and wondered why I keep my world so small? Why is my contact with other lives kept at the bare minimal? What am I so afraid of? Why is my space just so small? I admit now that it really isn’t the best way to live. I’ve always given the [...]
Assalam alaykum everyone! It's been what...3 months since I last posted something on here? It honestly feels like a lifetime ago. God I've missed you guys and the feeling of putting something out there for people to read.
