The correct answer to this question is "personification and enjambment." The poetic techniques that are illustrated in the opening lines “I am fourteen/and my skin has betrayed me/the boy I cannot live without/still sucks his thumb/in secret are personification and enjambment.
Personification - the skin betrayed
Enjambment - the sentences do not finish with the line
