    Wow, an excellent write. I enjoyed the read. The flow was almost perfect and the structure was flawless. I made a few changes to your poem so the flow would be better.

    ````````

    Today I got an x-ray;
    they found you inside my heart.
    They told me that without you,
    I'd simply fall apart.
    The portion that holds you,
    Is much more than I can give.
    You may not be the best for me;
    but without you I can not live.

    `````````

    Overall a wonderful write. Keep up the great work.

    Peace, Joe

    I agree with what Joe said, your poem would be much better if you altered it to his suggestions.

    This was amazing, and you should truly believe that because I hate love poems. But this just flows so simply, and is so simple, yet artful in its words. I truly have nothing to say that could possible make this any better. Thank you

    Peace and prosperity

    First off, I found it to be a very simple write.
    This made the flow extremely natural and very conversational.

    `Today I got an x-ray ;
    They found you inside my heart .
    They told me that without you ,
    I'll just simply fall apart .

    I see Joes suggestion for the above and I agree to a degree but I think [I'd just simply fall apart] would flow better. The extra syllable really helps, in my opinion. It keeps it 7,7,7,7 ; Instead of 7,7,7,6.

    `The part of it that holds you ,
    Is much more than I can give .
    You may not be the best for me ;
    But without you I can't live .

    I think this is perfect as it is. The entire poem has something very simple about it, very natural. And I think if you try change this you'd lose that. The rhyme is very cliche, but it fits. Its in no way forced and I love that.

    Anyway, about the poem. I adore the idea of on xray of the heart. You're giving love a medical sense, taking the phrase "I need you to live" to a new extreme. I quite enjoyed that.
    Well done. (:

    Today I got an x-ray ;
    ^Good entrance, its captivating, and draws the reader in a bit
    They found you inside my heart .
    ^Now the curiosity begins. Good job.
    They told me that without you ,
    I'll just simply fall apart .
    ^In this line, I think instead of "I'll" you should you "I'd" It helps the flow i think, and since beforehand you were talking in past tense. As someone else previously said.
    The part of it that holds you ,
    Is much more than I can give .
    You may not be the best for me ;
    But without you I can't live .
    ^The last line here I didn't really like. I don't know why exactly though.

    Over all the idea of the poem was great and unique, i had a few problems with it but for the most part it was a good poem. The idea of it is very captivating. Amazing Job. you've impressed me. :]

    I feel like I have read this before, or something very similar to this. Possibly in a forwarded text, because I remember sending it to my boyfriend. Anyhow, it's cute. I don't have much else to say, I never was into love poems. Too cheesy for my liking.

    Aww, very cute. Expressive for how short it is. Very unique, I liked it. Flow seemed a little off, although I checked the syllables and they were all the same except for the next to last line.
    I don't know, could just be me. I still really liked it though.

    It seems I cant say much more than what has already been said.
    Its an okay poem, but short, and that can go both ways.
    Its a very short and simple poem which is easy to read and doesnt overstimulate my brain like some poems do, you've gotten a lot of expression and emotion in such a short poem but it seems like there should be more to it. Maybe add a stanza or two if you could.

    Like some others have said, its not the most original piece, im sure there are quite a few out there just like this one, again, if you added a stanza or two to this piece you could make it stand out quite a bit more and make it more your own.
    Its got potential so far, Im sorry if i sound to harsh. :\

    I don't feel I can go into as much detail as others have in terms of feedback. Simply because most of it would be unnecessary. It was a very sweet and simple write. I liked it. So sorry it took me so long to read. But I'm glad I did :]
