What do you do when the world expects you to have it all figured out, but you're still learning who you are? First Steps Into the Unknown is a collection of raw, heartfelt poems that capture the messy, beautiful journey of early adulthood-a time when the road ahead feels uncertain, but the desire to find yourself is stronger than ever.
These poems explore graduation, self-doubt, broken expectations, and the complex, sometimes confusing world of relationships and dating. In your early 20s, you're expected to know what's next, but what happens when you don't? They reflect on that uncertain time, when the future seemed unclear, and your own worth was something you had to learn to define.
From the crushing weight of societal pressure to the quiet strength that comes from learning to trust yourself-and to navigate connections with others-these poems explore what it means to take the first step, even when you don't know where you're going. It's about the courage to embrace the unknown and let go of everything that doesn't serve you.
This is for anyone who's ever felt lost, unsure, or just trying to figure it out. It's for anyone who's ever dared to move forward when they didn't know what they were moving toward. Because the first step isn't about the destination-it's about trusting yourself to keep going.
