Seperating

I can feel my family
falling apart

I see you two fight
all the time

You are growing
farther away

I feel there is nothing
I can do to stop this

There is no way to avoid
the inevitable

It's just not working
anymore

Maybe it is for the best,
what's happening now

I just wish,
there was something I could do

I want to say that I feel sad
but I don't, not really

I'm gald you're honest with me
and not acting like everything's okay

It used to be okey
What happened?

You two were find
Our family was intacted

Six years
Six years of no problems

And now?
It's all crumbling

I can see my family
falling apart

i don't know if you structured this poem this way on purpose but as I read it, it seemed like you had these little snippets of thought that were so heavy to hold that they could only be expressed briefly and succinctly. the structure really helps the reader absorb the power of your words
