Since the day I saw your smile, I knew you'd play a role in my life, but I didn't know you'd end up playing the lead.

You've always been the one. The one who wiped my tears when I cried, bought me ice cream on hot days, ate my not-so-great cooking, and showed me that there is magic in love.

Before you, I tried to place people in roles in which they didn't belong. I tried to find the perfect character within imperfect people and despite the long wait, you kept trying. You held my hand through every miscast and listened to me cry when I couldn't keep it together.

Thank you for not giving up on me, because if you had, I couldn't bear to watch the ending. An ending that entails lost love and regret. Thanks to you I know one thing to be certain; true love does exist. The kind of love I thought only happens in the movies. The kind that sweeps you off your feet.

You support me in whatever seemly impossible task I choose to take on. You encourage me and genuinely want me to succeed. On days when things seem too hard and I feel like I don't have strength, you are always there to lend me some.

And for that, I promise to do the same for you. I promise to play the role I chose to take on with passion and enough love to last a lifetime because you deserve it. I promise that every day I'll show you that I deserve to play the lead and no matter what I'll be your biggest fan because you've always been mine.

I know that when the credits start to play and the theater begins to empty, you were the right choice. The perfect lead.
