start of settling

I want to broadcast my ever anxious heart; let it run itself out of energy. I wake up to the sound of everything that ever mattered, but I can't be nervous now. There's better ways to live. I can't be worried now; I'm in for it.  I'm yours, an ever anxious heart. The start of something settling.

    am I right in thinking
    you may have an object of your affection? as in a person..?


    this line is great "I wake up to the sound of everything that ever mattered,"

    "ever" is probably my favorite word in poetry. it's powerful.

    one thing though is this " that's added you and i."
    I agree it sounds better that way, but since it's a DO (i think)
    it should be "the list that's added you and me."

    beautiful writing as always.

    the beginning is always the best part. that feeling you get is undescribable but you did it justice. this is very good.

    This has the urgency and emotion of adolescence. I hope you don't mind me saying so. I think people in their teens and twenties really are experts at forcing the reader to feel. But that's just me. After that, we tend to be a little more apathetic. Hope I don't get letters.

    I've missed reading your stuff, man. I need my internet back. This is so beautiful; it's like a sunrise in words, only less cliché and a little more manly. This captures the feeling of first noticing and falling for someone perfectly in a way that's original and fresh and touching.

      lol partially, yeah.
      but it's also a forced poem, too. so take your pick.
