Reality Bites

Everyone says reality bites,

but I don't think thats the problem.

I mean, everyone bites, or gets bitten, at a point in their life.

The problem is, reality is like a vampire, and when it clamps on,

it doesn't let go, sucking the blood until there is nothing but hollowness in the pit of your

heart.

For some reason, I thought you were going to end with the word soul. I really love that you chose heart instead. It makes the whole poem.
