Welcome To Reality

I'm the bad guy in this situation, I get it. You're scared of me. Why? Because I don't fit into your fantasy world that everyone tries to protect themselves in. I'm reality and that terrifies you.  You want to stay in your shield of beautiful lies and I'm the deadly truth of reality. You'd think that humans would be smart enough to figure that out already. Villains are always reality and the hero is an illusion. Everyone is mean, cruel, and ruthless. This is the world I was born in. Nowadays everything is an illusion and you know it's true. That's why you fear me so much. I am the reality you hide yourself from everyday. Humans are always the same. Always scared of the unknown.  Everything I do is unpredictable and you hate it. Welcome to reality. Enjoy your stay.
