“I loved you the same way
that I learned how to ride a bike.
Scared, but reckless.
With no training wheels
or elbow pads so my scars
can tell the story of how
I fell for you.”
― Rudy Francisco, Helium

“Speak

because your
voice is currency,

and their comfort isn't worth
your silence.”
― Rudy Francisco, I'll Fly Away

“hope the camera gods bless you with a steady hand great lighting, the perfect angle, and enough storage space to save the results. May you snap the picture at the right time, eyes open and smiling with your entire face. Months from now, I hope you stumble across the picture and you are ambushed by your own radiance.”
― Rudy Francisco, I'll Fly Away

“Sometimes I'm the mess.
Sometimes I'm the broom.
On the hardest days, I have to be both.”
― Rudy Francisco
