/ o.L.d .H.igh s.K.hool

Empty basements and friendship bracelets

Suburban faces and beer in cases

Satin laces and forgotten places

Setting paces with teeth in braces

Tall blond girls in tie-dye swirls

Hair that curls through finger-twirls

Necks in pearls, like dancing-whirls

Lost the world; my heart unfurled

Pretty smile, you're worth my while

Run a mile for your denial

Sit on tile and a lovely pile

Your eyes beguile; keep this on file

rhyme scheme was awesome here. very well done. I like the lines:
"Pretty smile, you're worth my while
Run a mile for your denial"
I felt those lines most.

tried to rate 101/100 but WC wouldn't allow me.

this worked so well. it was a fresh description of so many relatable experiences.
the last stanza was definitely my favorite.

this is really cool! i'm usually not a huge poetry fan, but i love the imagery in this one, it's very vivid and specific.
