Any Human Heart

Dead
Glowing
Smoldering embers
Little sparks
There's a Fire
starting in my heart
Flaming
Burning
Raging
like a forest ablaze
Breaking
Fading
Smoking
Sinking
Despairing
Dying
and rebirth

This poem reminds and reminded me of how my mind is on extremely stressful days/weeks. Where words becomes scribbles intertwined into nothing more then a ball of chaotic knots. Every word, feeling, etc was as if the mind was SCREAMING out the feelings it was able to pull from a jumbled mess. Like each strand in the ball of chaos is loosened as the words are spoken. Lovely.

I haven't heard that song but I don't think that matters as this stands by itself a a lovely poem. The short descending lines works well for the poem. The imagery is wonderfully captivating and I love how you wrapped it up with some hope at the end. Another song it reminded me of was 'Fire in my Heart' by the Super Furry Animals.

This has a good flow. The choppy pace makes for a good fast-paced ride through the inferno.
