The poetic techniques that are illustrated in the opening lines of this poem are personification and enjambment. 
Personification is when inanimate objects have human qualities, such as <em>and my skin has betrayed me.
</em>Enjambment is when the though found in one line is transferred into the following one, such as in <em>still sucks his thumb/in secret.</em>

Write a story about an occasion when someone you trusted betrayed you​
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The time my best friend <u>lied</u> to me.

Explanation:

This was long ago before anything happend to the world. It was just a normal school day. I had math, history, and science before lunch and recess. The day was going great before my best friend asked me if he could go to my house later today so we could hang out. I of course said "yes" But I wish I have never had.

After the school day was over, I came home to ask my mom if My friend could come over? She said, "yes, just make sure he cleans up after himself." I was so happy! After my mom picked him up, we played for hours upon hours, until he was hungry, (and so was I) so I asked my mom if we could have something to eat? she gave us some yogurt to munch on. We sat down in my living room, talking about the school day, and what we got for homework. Then he said " I'm feeling tired, and sick. Could you go get me some water?" I said "Ok!" I jumped up and went to go get my mom. I asked her what I should give him to help with his stomach. She got some medicine for him. After we got it, we went to go give it to him, when he was jumping around, playing with my cats! He then saw us and proceeded to act like he was still sick. After that point, he became my worst enemy.

P.S This was like 4-5 years ago. Everything happened when we were kids.
