And The Reason Is You

You were perfect.
You were everything I needed.
You were everything I wanted.

We had similar music taste, which is a huge deal for me, since music is my life.
You were kind... To everyone. For no reason. That's just how you are. And I admire that. <3
You had the humor and sarcasm that makes you playful and fun to talk with.
You have good style, which made you even more attractive than you already are.
You go through things that make you a real person. Someone who isn't fake and pretends to be someone else.
You know who you are deep down. And you let me in, so I could see that person.
You allow yourself to open up to me.
We had one conversation one night that made me realize how similar we are.
You love night time, just like me. You like to walk around in the dark, like me. You're always listening to music, and so am I. You go through things that shape you into who you are. You've been through hard times. But you stayed strong through everything.
You have feelings, and you make that apparent. You're not an ordinary guy.
You saved me. From Depression. From my pain. From myself.
You helped me survive everyday, even when I was suffering most. You got me through everything. Sometimes, you were unaware of it.
You keep my faith going strong. When I'm losing my mind and my hope starts to fade, my faith keeps me grounded, at least enough to be okay. Because I know you're always there.
You see the importance in things that matter. You understand that not everything is flawless, and things will go wrong.
You listen.
You actually hear me. Because for some things, you've heard yourself say the same.
You know what to say in EVERY situation. Whether I'm happy, pissed, sad... it doesn't matter. You always say the right things.
You make me happy just by breathing.
You understand me more than anyone else does. And you're always willing to be my shoulder to cry on.
You're my reason to stay strong when I feel like giving up.
You don't question my passions, you just let me be who I am.
You never try to change me.
You make me laugh.
You make me smile.
You give me butterflies and chills.
You make my heart pound like nobody else can.
Seeing you for even a second in a day can make my whole day better.
No matter what situation I'm in, I can't help but smile when you look at me.
You've been by my side from the start.
Once you were in my life, you never left...
You knew when something was wrong. Even if we were texting and I was hiding my emotions from you... You knew. And you somehow managed to get it out of me.
With you, nothing is left unsaid. Because I know I have to be the most honest person as I can be with you.
All I ever wanted was for you to be happy, no matter what that meant for me.
You were, and are everything to me.
You're perfect.
And I've never been happier.
We can be in complete silence, and it won't make a difference. Because we don't need to say anything. Sometimes what I feel can't be put into words... And I just stand there, and wish you could feel the way my heart was making me feel. I can stare into your eyes, and everything around us will disappear. It's just me and you... And yet I still get shy.. And I look away, trying to stop myself from turning red or laughing nervously.
Most of the time, I failed... But when I looked back at you, you were still watching me, and your smile never faded.
You made me feel beautiful. And I know that's so cliche, but it's so true.
The first time you held my hand in yours, everything clicked. I could feel your touch, and I knew I wasn't dreaming.
The first time you kissed me, I was put into serenity. Nothing could have changed my happiness.

We've been through more than should be possible in the amount of time we've known each other. You were so easy for me to open myself up to. I knew there was no judgement with you. I knew you cared about me.
I knew you wouldn't leave.
Even when I'm sad... You keep my head above the water... Because I know that no matter what happens, there's always reason to live. And the reason is you.

Everything I just wrote still doesn't do my heart justice.
There's literally nothing I can say to make you understand completely.
Ryan.
I love you.
With everything in me.
You're my reason. And I hope I can be yours. <3
