I believe when she says “and my skin has betrayed me” as like cause of her skin something is holding her back or because the next line say “the boy I cannot live without still sucks his thumb” so maybe the boy doesn’t like her because of her skin. Basically overall I think this poem is trying to express things that are holding her back. Or another one is she is just letting her emotions go and writes them on paper.

One thing I noticed in this Poem is a lot of emotions. Lets say “I should have been on Math team my marks were better than his”, that’s anger and jealously. I think she might also have some problems, I’m not saying that’s bad I am just saying it sounds like that.

I think this poem is about a boy because it says I should have been on math team blah, blah, blah, have to learn how to dance ( trying to impress guy), still sucks his thumb, the boy I cannot live without, why do I have to be the one wearing braces.

“And mommas in the bedroom with the door closed is what I will be talking about in this last paragraph. I think she is trying to say that her mom does not no what is going on in her life and that she has so much going on. Or that her does not care about her and shuts the door on her and lets her live her own life when she wants to be a nice person.
