They sat Together
on the porch with Their hot chocolate
now beginning to chill
He had so much to tell Her
how He felt
how He saw Her
how much She mattered to Him
He was so embarrassed to share His feelings
He was even worried
as to how HIs breath made clouds in the cold air
Hers were not as noticable
there were many things keeping Them apart
the slight mount of snow building between Them
the frigidness of the cold air
and the secrets
the secrets
hanging around Him
like the halo of the snow angel
She had made earlier that night
the love He had for Her
as refreshing as the cool air
against Her soft cheeks
yet He was afraid of it
He took Her hand in his
stared Her in the eye
and gathered His courage
then She said "I Love You"

Not to sound full of myself, but I really like what I did with the capitalization in this poem. It might not be the strongest thing I've ever written, but I still like it quite a bit for this reason.
