Reality

Some recent events in my life have lead me to write this poem.

What is reality
Is it what's real to me
Do you see the same real I see
Do you feel what real can be
Through realization by experimentation
or 
Through recommendation by explanation

Sometimes it hurts
To accept and admit truth
At times it's hard
To escape from your youth
Growing means knowing more than you did before
Showing you're ready for what life has in store

Reality can help put you back on track
What's real is real, recognize it as fact
No more fantasy lands or helping hands
Reality hits you hard in the face
You're alone, no track to trace
To pave your own path is your only choice

Realize all you have is your one voice
Versus everyone else in existence
or
Join together for resistance
Against the system and reality's ways of bringing down
Gain wisdom and turn everything around
