I love the fact that you went with a mirrored acrostic. I thought your imagery was really dark (in a good way), especially the last stanza. You succeeding in making me not only believe but feel your pain.
My only criticism, and it is a minor one, is that I think you do not need the commas bracketing 'hauntingly' in the first stanza.
I laughed the whole time I read your poem, and it made my think of my first kiss, which was just as awkward. Thank you for bringing back a slice of my childhood, and for the vivid pictures your words painted.
