I agree with kolemath that the random rhyming does seem to give it a lighthearted feel, which I don't know if you're going for. Didnt think it was random so much as subtle, here's the rhyme pattern by how I organized it

S1: through, soon, moon
       feeling, leaving
      help her, held her
S2: television, again, weapon
       jaw, fall
       rage, space
S4:  raw, calls, all
       hungrier, funnier
       violent, silence

The line breaks feel random, and it reads like prose except for the occasional burst of strict rhyme. I think some of the breaks might be cause the line was too long, and I'd like to know more of the difference between prose and anything else. I thought this piece was borderline  Wink

In the end, the heart comes through, and that's the main thing. Thanks for reading

Thanks for sharing,

Luke

Thanks fornthe read
If you want to do a line for line I'll consider all your comments wholeheartedly, it just seemed exhausting for this one   Thumbsup
