Conform if you must. I refuse to follow the crowd. I only hope someone notices me for doing so. Not only notices me, admires my noble cause. I loath those who take it sitting down and complain of being wronged. Not I. As proactive as I can be, I will hold steadfast to my cause. As worthy as I seem, I am not as strong as you. I have waited over two years for this one moment, the brief seconds measured in steps, words, and breaths. You are more breath taking than I could have ever imagined, and yet, I know this will surmount to nothing. Unlike me, you have someone to hold you through these cold winter months. It saddens me though to think if this were not true, if you would truly wonder into my arms, because I doubt it. Our brier encounter is nothing compared to the years accumulated by others. I simply took in your beauty as you watched. I don't know what you know any more, but I'm sure you are just as scared as I am, not because we share common feelings, but because you don't and I still do. I feel pathetic holding on for all this time. I only wish you the best, and me not to get hurt.
