This is the first collection of poetry and intimate diary entries from journalist Raven Jordan. Blending unflinching poetry with the raw honesty of intimate entries, the book serves as a necessary roadmap for navigating modern adulthood.
The author takes you on a journey of confessions in three parts: - Identity: Complexities of self-identity. - Butterflies and Heartaches: The intoxicating high and devastating low of romance - No Peace: A commentary on race and politics.
Upon the pages is a delightful blend of original art from the author, journal entries spanning diaries and journals from 2018-2024, and poems from 2019 - early 2025. Some entires are gritty and raw while some are lighthearted and touching.
