From curls to quiet, she unlearned who she once was just to come back home. Earth to Avni is the voice that pulls me back when growing up feels overwhelming. It holds bittersweet nostalgia and goodbyes, people-pleasing and self-doubt, burnout and breakdowns, and the strange way we compare our insides to everyone else's outsides. Unravelling the Curls is my way of untangling all that emotion, one poem at a time: messy, honest, and mine.
