I think we should all take a moment to thank Rudy Francisco for existing.

I saw him
suspended in the atmosphere
hanging on the pieces of a man
that no longer looks back at him in the mirror
he doesn’t even realize that he’s become his own ghost
a spectre
an apparition
haunting the man that he would be
if he could just shake the cold grip of the chemicals that have transposed their hands around his neck
he’s become a man with no shadow
no reflection
just a leaf
in the wind
whispering his story to the breeze
because god is the only one listening
Damn, Rudy.

"I have an odd fascination with things like sand castles and ice sculptures
I assume it’s because I usually find myself dedicating time to things that will only last a few moments
I guess that’s why I fall in love with things that will never love me back
and I know that sounds crazy but it’s easier than it seems
and to be honest I think it’s safer that way
you see
relationships often remind that I’m not afraid of heights or falling
but I am scared to death of everything that’s going to happen the very moment
that my body hits the ground"

"If I was a love poet, I’d write about how you have the audacity to be beautiful even on days when everything around you is ugly. I’d write about your eyelashes and how they are like violin strings that play symphonies every time you blinked."

"someday
you will throw a penny in a wishing well
and it will choke
because your dreams
are just too big for it to swallow"

"my hobbies include:
editing my life story
hiding behind metaphors
and trying to convince my shadow that I’m someone worth following"

We are both allergic to the exact same things. Things like compliments, like the word “beautiful”, like someone saying “I love you” with arms full of acceptance and sincerity on their breath.

"This is for the strong women..
Remember, this world, wasn’t built for you.
So if need be,
you tear it to the ground,
resurrect it in your image,
and make sure its just as beautiful,
as you are."
— Rudy Francisco
