The Adolescent Adult

The Adolescent Adult is a raw and resonant poetry collection exploring the beautiful, messy space between growing up and truly becoming.

From the restless dreams of youth to the hard-won lessons of adulthood, Taylor Moon's debut work captures the emotional tug-of-war between longing for what's ahead and aching for what's gone. These poems chronicle love and heartbreak, hope and loss, resilience and renewal - told through the lens of a young woman navigating identity, motherhood, disability, and the quiet courage it takes to keep showing up.

Written with unflinching honesty, The Adolescent Adult speaks to anyone who has ever felt caught between worlds - whether between teenage dreams and adult realities, illness and strength, or despair and the small, stubborn sparks of hope. With topics ranging from epilepsy to addiction, friendship to self-discovery, each page invites you to pause, reflect, and recognize pieces of yourself in its verses.

For readers of motivational poetry and coming-of-age stories, especially women seeking connection, empowerment, and the reminder that no season of life is wasted, this collection offers both solace and inspiration.
