Reality Smacks You In The Face.....

Reality Smacks You In The Face.....

A Poem by Onlyme

Reality smacks you in the face
and you see it
but you do not feel it
you try to acknowledge it

but you can not
as the safety switch
has been pulled
in your brain
and you close down
and run on autopilot

like a chicken with its head
chopped off.
That is still walking
around not realizing it's
missing a head.

Reality really can throw
you a blinder to where
you can not deal with it.

it fully before you can
come to terms with it all.

The shock and realization all
is
not wonderful or great.

Then maybe you can handle
it better and deal with life
better as you have become
more used to the shock and
awe of something bad.

No idea. But that is how I feel.
