    "Will no longer be hers too
    Two souls that became one,
    Separate into a me and a you"

    I liked the use of too/two close together, it was witty and interesting. The idea of the resplitting of the souls was also interesting, and well worded to fit the rhyme. Probably my favorite few lines from the poem.

    "As for it feels soon"
    I feel like this line would sound more natural if it was:
    "As it feels that soon"
    ~~~~
    "All will happen is a collapse to set free"
    There should be a 'that' between 'all' and 'will' for this sentence to sound better.

    I thought that the rhyme scheme was very natural, but that the poem lacked a rhythm. Though I like rhythmic poems, I don't suppose it is a bad thing if you purposefully chose not to have a rhythm, that is sort of your decision. If you wanted to establish a rhythm in this poem, it'd be all about making a rhythm scheme of lines with similar syllable counts. But no change is really necessary. Good poem.
