The message of Fragments of Us is pretty simple: growing up is messy, weird, and wonderful all at once, and that’s totally okay. It’s a reminder that, yes, we’re all stumbling through this “figuring life out” thing together, and that every awkward crush, every late-night deep thought, and every embarrassing moment are just pieces of the puzzle. So, if you’re feeling like life’s a bit chaotic, this collection is here to say, “Same here!”—and that every little moment is part of the big, beautiful mess of growing up.

Shriya Dash, Jiya Nambiar
Shriya Dash is a poet who writes from the quiet corners of the heart—the ones most people are afraid to visit. Her words explore grief, resilience, love, and identity with unflinching honesty and lyrical grace. Drawing from personal experiences, including her father's battle with cancer, Shriya’s poetry doesn’t just speak — it listens. A long-time mental health advocate and the founder of MMI (Me, Myself & I)—a mental health platform for teenagers, she uses her voice and verses to create spaces where pain can breathe and healing can begin. Fragments of Us marks her debut as a published poet, capturing moments too big for silence and too honest for fiction.
She writes what the silence leaves behind.
Jiya Nambiar, the author of Fragments of Us, is just a regular teen who happens to write poems… a lot of poems. Capturing everything from awkward crushes to those “deep thoughts at 3 a.m.,” Jiya’s work dives into the rollercoaster of teenage life. She doesn’t claim to have it all figured out—in fact, writing Fragments of Us was probably just her way of making sense of it all. Her poems are like snapshots of growing up, full of humor, honesty, and a touch of teenage chaos.
