it was love at first sight. he had blue eyes and white hair.  he was my world. i gushed when he walked by. my heart ached to tell him how i felt. i was shy. one day in the school playground he ran after me with a squirt gun. i stayed near the teacher. i wasn’t afraid of him. i just didn’t want to get wet. i laughed at him. he got mad. he wrote this in my autograph book on graduation day. roses are red, violets are blue, you have a nose like a B52. i looked at him in shock. he shrugged his shoulders and smiled. he was cute. i lost contact with him. i didn’t know where to find him. he wasn’t listed in the phone book. my heart skipped a beat when i heard someone speak of him. he is married. i am not. he has children. he goes by my house every day. to have searched all these years and to have lost.
