Liked the memories, and the picture went along with your poem. You might want to read your poem aloud, to see that some lines don't meter and some words didn't rhyme. Some commas on certain lines were missing.

Haiku does not require meter or rhyme, only proper syllable count.
Thanks for commenting. Rules for Traditional Haiku Structure:
"The second line is 7 syllables. The third line is 5 syllables like the first. Punctuation and capitalization are up to the poet, and need not follow the rigid rules used in structuring sentences. A haiku does not have to rhyme, in fact usually it does not rhyme at all."

The objective correlative of the work reminisces the protagonist's High School Days.
The work highlights his doggedness with his studies as well as his manoeuvres in a love affair.
The work earns its texture through the effective use of flashbacks that reminisce his experience.
Excellent work. Bravo.

You have managed to tell a complete story of high school years, and included the value of enduring friendships. Remembering and talking about earlier times with someone with whom they were shared is very rewarding. Good job.

This is such a cool piece! It's amazing how in only 12 lines you summed up being an adolescent, or at least the most important time in an adolescent's life. I mean, you basically told my life story, and no doubt, stories of many others. I'm impressed with how you got the rhyme scheme to work while not compromising the rest of the poem. While reading, I debated on if the lines were too long, but I think they have to be for it to work. Well done and good luck!
