in0ceans asked: Dear Rudy, you are my inspiration to be a better writer, and a better poet. i can't go more than one day without listening to something you've wrote and every time i do i feel inspired to get up and do something with my life. i go to a school where being open with your feelings is something you're teased about, but in front of 1500 people i recited one of your poems. i don't know if i did it justice, but in that moment i felt happy, and i felt like your words made me a better person. thank you.

Wow, I’m humbled that you chose my poem to recite and the fact that you found solace in my words. I’m glad my work has inspired you. These are the messages that remind me how meaningful poetry is.
