Here Comes Reality
By: Andrew McGivery

Wake up and face the nightmare
Reality is creeping up on me
Feel the shreds rip up my heart
It’s taking bites out of my soul
Here it comes.

It’s crawling up my neck
And digging in my head
It’s leaving its mark on me
It’s taking over my soul
Here comes Reality.

Wake up and face the nightmare
It won’t go away until you are part of it
It stalks me day and night
It’s creeping on me
Here it comes.

Life is one big learning experience
But no amount of experience can prepare you for this
Everyone is trying to teach you
But no amount of learning can make sense of reality

Beautiful job!

Only suggestion is that you wshould define your ending. Of course we can see it's ended, but if someone was reading it to you and stopped there, it wouldn't really feel like the end.

You really created some awesome images related to your poem. Also, you used well the effect of repetition which gave effective suspense!
