I believe everybody in school met someone they really thought they would know when they grew up. Someone special. But you've lost touch with them, you don't know where they are. Write them a poem telling about why they were so special to you and how you still feel about them and how much you want to see them again and why. All styles except raunchy erotic and haiku.
