You're The Reason

Ryan lived a life that felt unbearably heavy. With no one to lean on and no one reaching out, he struggled to balance college and long nights at work. Deep down, he believed someone like him was nothing more than a burden to the world.

She pulled him out of the darkness without even trying. Her smile felt like warmth on a cold night. For the first time, Ryan found a reason to stay.

But not all light is meant to last... and their love was cut painfully short.
