Paralyzed

Can't move,

Can't sleep..

Stuck in the middle;

Stuck in between

Trying to wake

But the noise is loud

Ringing in my ear

Warning me of the cloud

I know if I turn

I'll be caught in the grasp:

A hallucination—

Of unwelcomed wrath

I want it to stop

So very bad

But I panic in fear

And never forget that

Even when I wake

It is all too real

And the face will stain

My silenced squeals

Paralyzed in reality

While still in a dream

I don't want to sleep,

Anymore, it seems.
