Sensory images:
1, “a long and painful surgery” (line 6) - I could feel how painful the separation would be
2, “Now, when you see me, you won’t even glance my way.” (lines 7-8) - I can see a girl purposely ignoring another girl, and I can imagine the other girl’s sadness.
3, “Tiny, stylish bikinis” (line 10) - I can see a group of fashion obsessed cocky girls.
“The shoe flinging game” (line 17) - I can almost hear the three girls laughing and giggling.
“Our crayon faces, mismatched and lopsided, looked nothing like our real ones.” (lines 30 - 32) - I can almost smell the crayon and see the the lopsided faces.
Line structure:
A lot of short, power lines like:
“We were practically triplets,
so close.” (lines 2 - 3 and 39 - 40)
and
“I stay underwater
so you won’t laugh at me.” (lines 14 - 15)
Stanzas:
Every stanza is close in size, expect for the last two. They seem to be fading off like the girls’ relationship did.
Each stanza deals with a different time.
