    Rudy Francisco
    “I was told
    The average girl begins to plan her wedding at the age of 7
    She picks the colors and the cake first
    By the age of 10
    She knows time,
    And location
    By 17
    She’s already chosen a gown
    2 bridesmaids
    And a maid of honor
    By 23
    She’s waiting for a man
    Who wont break out in hives when he hears the word “commitment”
    Someone who doesn’t smell like a Band-Aid drenched in lonely
    Someone who isn’t a temporary solution to the empty side of the bed
    Someone
    Who’ll hold her hand like it’s the only one they’ve ever seen
    To be honest
    I don’t know what kind of tux I’ll be wearing
    I have no clue what want my wedding will look like
    But I imagine
    The women who pins my last to hers
    Will butterfly down the aisle
    Like a 5 foot promise
    I imagine
    Her smile
    Will be so large that you’ll see it on google maps
    And know exactly where our wedding is being held
    The woman that I plan to marry
    Will have champagne in her walk
    And I will get drunk on her footsteps
    When the pastor asks
    If I take this woman to be my wife
    I will say yes before he finishes the sentence
    I’ll apologize later for being impolite
    But I will also explain him
    That our first kiss happened 6 years ago
    And I’ve been practicing my “Yes”
    For past 2, 165 days
    When people ask me about my wedding
    I never really know what to say
    But when they ask me about my future wife
    I always tell them
    Her eyes are the only Christmas lights that deserve to be seen all year long
    I say
    She thinks too much
    Misses her father
    Loves to laugh
    And she’s terrible at lying
    Because her face never figured out how to do it correctl
    I tell them
    If my alarm clock sounded like her voice
    My snooze button would collect dust
    I tell them
    If she came in a bottle
    I would drink her until my vision is blurry and my friends take away my keys
    If she was a book
    I would memorize her table of contents
    I would read her cover-to-cover
    Hoping to find typos
    Just so we can both have a few things to work on
    Because aren’t we all unfinished?
    Don’t we all need a little editing?
    Aren’t we all waiting to be proofread by someone?
    Aren’t we all praying they will tell us that we make sense
    She don’t always make sense
    But her imperfections are the things I love about her the most
    I don’t know when I will be married
    I don’t know where I will be married
    But I do know this
    Whenever I’m asked about my future wife
    I always say
    …She’s a lot like you”

    Sherrilyn Kenyon
    “When you love someone, truly love them, you lay your heart open to them. You give them a part of yourself that you give to no one else, and you let them inside a part of you that only they can hurt-you literally hand them the razor with a map of where to cut deepest and most painfully on your heart and soul. And when they do strike, it’s crippling-like having your heart carved out.”
    Sherrilyn Kenyon

    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs

    Bob Marley
    “He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
    Bob Marley

    "Good," I said. "That's what I want too.”
    Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms
