Marly Unmarginated

A space for the in-between, where mess becomes meaning and you are already enough.

Hi, I’m Marly. And if you’ve ever felt like you didn’t quite fit in, like you were somehow too much and not enough all at once, this space is for you.

I created Marly Unmarginated because between the lines, things are tidy, quiet, acceptable. But, I’m not tidy. I’m not quiet. I’m not always “put together.” I feel deeply. I love hard. I unravel sometimes. And somewhere in the mess of it all, I realized, maybe the mess is where the magic lives.

Here, you’ll find poetry poured straight from my chest. Ponderings on belonging, on grief, on joy, on being a mom, of being a small town girl, on what it means to be a person in a world that asks us to perform, filter, shrink. I want this to be a space where we can breathe again. Where being real is enough. Where you don’t have to wear armor to be welcome.

I won’t promise perfect sentences. But I do promise an authentic, genuine voice. The kind that shakes sometimes. The kind that makes you exhale and whisper “me too.”

This is for the beautiful chaos of life. The sacred ache of being human. For anyone who’s ever felt like they were on the outside looking in.

You belong here.

Welcome to unmarginated.
