Use '\n' to add a new line before writing 'blength'
clc
fid = fopen('C:\Users\Mr Andrew\Desktop\111.txt', 'a');
for k = 1:5
fprintf(fid,'alength\n blength \r\n')
end
fclose(fid);

No, the '\n' between 'alength' and 'blength' will move the pointer to the next line. My output was:
alength
blength
alength
blength
alength
blength
alength
blength
alength
blength
