Hello, FrostBlast!
I'd advice you to pay attention to the words:
порыв, забыл, нежный
In порыв and забыл your ы is not clear enough.
And as for нежный, make more stress on е.
On the whole evetything was quite clear and some words were almost perfect:
годы, мечты
=)

I agree with previous comment: main thing is to practice your ы in порыв, забыл.
Your intonation for spoken speach is not bad.
However, consider trying to read this poem with stress for rhyme, like you would a poem in your native language -- I assume one would in French, otherwise go by English intuition. You might find that it would be beneficial for improving your overall regular spoken language.
Шли г'оды. Б'урь пор'ыв мят'ежный
Расс'еял пр'ежние мечт'ы,
И я заб'ыл твой г'олос н'ежный,
Твои неб'есные черт'ы.
Just in case, since it can be hard to figure out, I've marked stressed vowels with '.
Here's an awesome albeit poetic reading of that entire poem. Even if it doesn't help you in your studies, I hope you find it entertaining.

oh dear!
it looks like Runglish!
FrostBlast,
tone, pitch and things like that are the most difficult and the least important... Don't listen to her...

Don't worry, I listen to my university teacher more than anyone else. I'm asking on here to get more feedback, that's all! = ]
And thanks!
