Don't Be Afraid

I've been in this place for 5 years . Is anyone there ? Can anyone hear me ? I ask myself the same question every time even though I know the answer . I am on a machine that scans me every minute . When I try to move it feels like my skeleton is ripping out of my back . I lay here and think how the world is outside of this place . I lie to myself all the time saying that everything is fine . I close my eyes tight because the sound of the machine is ear piercing and I drift into a deep sleep.
