The memories of the pain
all come flooding back.
The taste so foul.

No longer do yolu have
the perfect teeth,
No longer do you posses
that perfect smile.
No longer do you get the
looks you used to get.

For once again they have
caged you just as things
were looking
up.

Just as that boy you noticed
not that many months ago,
comes back.
He notices you....
but also notices your teeth.

why oes he only notice you now...
He had two years. Two years in
which he could have walked into
this life of yours and noticed
that smile that has now disapered
yet again.

fate can only take you so far, the rest is up to you

Wonderful work, Katie.  I haven't read much from you, but this impressed me.  I liked the last stanza.. very powerful.  Nice work, I enjoyed this.  I look forward to reading more.

Very nice work, Katiepoo... your talent in writing is developing quite nicely.  I'm really beginning to enjoy reading what you come up with.  I can see how your technique is beginning to take a more professional form, this is something to be very proud of.
This piece in particular is good because you played around with line breaks... putting the word "up" in a line all its own, for example.  
Also the symbolism of "teeth" is outstanding.  
See you around, Katie.

I enjoyed thi sone.....not as good as some that i have read by you, but nonetheless nicely done.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Sounds like someone wasn't too nice. You seem to have an obsession with teeth. That's all good.  

Hopefully, you're doing better. If not, good luck to you.

It was quite a different poem..but i still liked a lot..I never had to have my braces put back on but I did have them for three years longer than everyone else and it sucked...good expression of an interesting topic...
