Favorite poetry book

The second of 2 books but Rudy Fransisco, whatever price you pay for this book, it's worth it. Listen to his narrative of love, loss of that love, depression, insecurities, life surprises, even just trying to talk to a girl. His words are beautifully chosen to perfectly evoke how he feels and what he experiences. Get this one first. Then his first book to see his growth as a poet. I can read his poems over and over. Doubts? Check him out on YouTube first, then come back and buy it.
