In the real world all of your hard work will pay off.
Pay off.
In the real world all this won't madder.
Waiting.
Waiting.
Where is my prize?
Don't worry.
It's coming soon.
You will do well.
Waiting.
Waiting.
When?
This 'real world'.
Will it ever come?
All my hard work.
Will it ever madder?
What I did?
Can I live yet?
Will I ever be me?
All my hard work.
It doesn't madder.
No, I know it is true.
Waiting.
Waiting.
It is never coming.
This,
This 'real world'.
Sacrificed my childhood.
It stops now!
The person inside of me is just Dying to come out.
And live.
Live in today and stop preparing for the,
FAKE, REAL WORLD.

thanks for commenting on my poem "head over heels". i love your use of repetition, i think it's very effective. i'd consider not using punctuation at the end of every line. in poetry it can cause kind of an undesireable break in the flow, and it really isn't necessary. good job though!
