Overall, the essay is strong and has a deep emotional voice. You impressed me and you caught my attention at the start. One thing I suggest is expand more on how the boy has had an influence on you because you don't address that enough. I'm saying this because the purpose of the essay is to talk about the influence of a person on you, and while you did that, you didn't give enough about how he impacted you. Maybe 2-3 more sentence about this impact will make it stronger and more aligned with the prompt.
I hope my advice helps and good luck with your college application essay.
You're a really writer, and I hope you could give my Yale Supplement Essay a read!
