The almost near

The almost near

I’m looking over there, over there, beyond the bend, past the glare. The lights that blind. A shimmer in the air like whispered deceit, a portal to the life I seek. There are no ticking clocks or unpaid debts. No heavy thoughts or headlines news. Just quiet skies and weightless days, where time dissolves in [...]

The Tale of the Lone Smooth Pit

The Tale of the Lone Smooth Pit

One pit shaved, the other not But guess which one’s my beauty spot? I raise it high, I own the scene, That hairless queen, so fresh, so clean. The crowd is shook, the flashbulbs pop, My smooth side’s working non-stop. Who needs two when one’s a hit? I strike, I smirk at my just one [...]

Two weeks pathway with my bananas

Two weeks pathway with my bananas

When life hands you lemons. Grab the bananas. Today, I went to the doctor.I expected a glance, maybe a cream, maybe a “nothing to worry about.” Instead, I was placed on the two-week urgent referral pathway for skin cancer.The NHS track to rule out the serious stuff. Even though I know it’s precautionary, hearing those [...]

Can the mirror lie?

Can the mirror lie?

Ever notice how the mirror doesn’t always tell the truth? You stand there, staring at your reflection, picking apart every little thing? Too much of this, not enough of that. But what you see isn’t always what others see. While you focus on flaws, someone else might see warmth in your eyes, a smile that [...]

Monday’s

Monday’s

This was me last Friday at the end of my work day. This is me now, wishing tomorrow wasn’t Monday. Monday lands like a sequel no one approved,Caffeine’s betrayed me, my groove un-grooved.I lounge like couture in my nightiesloose embrace,While emails attack with unspeakable pace. “Just circling back!” the passive-aggressive war cry,Each ping a reminder [...]

Tropical Energy, No Passport Needed

Tropical Energy, No Passport Needed

You know that perfect holiday feeling, the one where the air feels warmer, time moves slower, and even just sitting down feels like a luxury? That’s the vibe I get from Costa Entry Set by Chez Moi. It’s not just a chair seating area, it’s a mood reset. The colours are vibrant without being loud, [...]

Today’s Vibe

Today’s Vibe

My TikTok samples? A pile to still open. 12 pieces of Halara landed at my front door Laundry? Giving me the side eye.And I swear I did vacuum earlier, I did. It’s too hot to think, inside my flat,So I’ve gone virtually barefoot Standing by imaginary waves, dodging real responsibilities. If anyone needs me…Tell them [...]

The day before it starts

The day before it starts

Sunday night, it’s the emotional equivalent of buffering.Nothing’s wrong, technically, but everything feels off. I started the day with sunshine and serotonin. Naive mistake.By dinner, Monday was looming like a badly parked thought I can’t unsee. I reached for snacks like they were therapy.That biscuit chocolate bar. Judged me like I was its disappointing child.Even [...]

The Autumn tide

The Autumn tide

The past few days have been nothing short of an oven, sticky, sweltering, and downright relentless. It’s that kind of heat where even the shadows seem to sweat, and walking out the front door feels like stepping into a hairdryer. Only there’s nothing drying. I’ve melted into every surface I’ve sat on and seriously considered [...]
