"I swear to you, there are divine things more beautiful than words can tell." - Walt Whitman.
A collection of essays that span the majority of our nameless narrator's early teenage and young adult years in life. About relationships; how they form, how they fall apart, how they reshape again and again. How we move closer to one another and sometimes drift away. Like balloons in a cloudy sky. We grow, we depart, but we never forget these moments of youth.
Though these are all essays, they are letters to certain people. These are for them and for youth.
There will be a total of 10 essays for this collection: each story is ranging from fun, light-hearted romps to something along the lines of being "expresso-depresso". These can be read in any order. Go nuts!

Teenage years are supposed to be fun, right? Yeah... Oyin missed that memo. Puberty didn't "glow her up", it dragged her. Life kept serving premium gbas gbos. God felt far. And being "the smart girl" suddenly stopped solving anything. This isn't a wild story. It's a true one.. raw, soft, and a little too relatable. A survival diary disguised as a book. Twenty phases of growing up without a manual: breaking, healing, repeating... and somehow still laughing through the chaos. If you've ever felt confused, overwhelmed, insecure, or like everyone else got life's instructions except you.. WELCOME !You're home. Read if you want something real, a little messy, and low-key comforting. Orr if you just want to feel seen for once. 🌚🤟🏾Complete
