Three piece family

very good poem, your family do love you.... well done

If you feel that is the case, please reconsider and at least open-mindedly accept advice from one who has actually been in the same boat, and chose to jump off. Sticking to this boat metaphor, lets just say I nearly drowned without my family there. I know it may sound duperficial, but you don't really know what you had until you have it no longer. Consider reading this to your family and having an open-ended discussion, giving everyone a chance to express their true feelings on the matter. perhaps your family structure doesn't allow for this, and I'm out of my league, but whatever the case, I hat seeing others choosing or considering the same paths I've travelled, and if I can share the knowledge of experience, than I'll at least try. As fas as the literature is concerned, impressive piece of work with a slightly broken tone. Maybe the emotion portrays this layered poem, which seems to sink further and further into aversion as it progresses. Good work, sad poem, poignant prose overall.
