Tender Genius

Eye contact wasn't one of the things he enjoyed the most. He was on the spectrum, after all. He said he had to go to therapy when he was younger to learn how to hold eye contact with others. One wouldn't guess he had issues at all, until you really got to know him.

He was tender and trusting and ultimately sweet. So much so that this world was too much for him most of the time. He found the world and most of the people in it very overwhelming. He let very few people into his unique and eclectic life. He filled his space so sweet, and he was always occupying his deep mind. Under all that tenderness and sweetness, there was a genius.

This man let me into his life. And, he saved my life. He was my unsung hero. He was my tender and somewhat tenacious savior. A man I came to love all too completely and all too quickly. 

"Your eyes gleam so well in this light, Ryan..." He complimented me as he gazed deeply into my eyes. The sunlight streaming into the room made them shine. Made them shine just for him. Just for him at that moment in time. "I also love the way your hair curls around your ears just right..." He uttered, twirling my little lock sweetly with his tender finger.

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
