My Sleep Paralysis

Poetry

How I feel inside my body while screaming for help

Wake me up when it's all over,

Wake me up when these weights are off my shoulders,

Wake me up when I can no longer feel this pain,

Wake me up when all this sh*t isn't the same,

Wake me up I'm ready leave,

WAKE ME UP NOW I'm stuck in this dream,

In this dream nothing is going right,

My body is paralyzed but I put up a fight,

My body is awake but I'm still asleep,

Alone with my thoughts makes me want to weep,

As I lay I try to cry out,

But nothing comes out and not even a shout,

Please wake me up so this can be over

Wake me up now, I'm scared and getting colder,

I feel a wall has trapped me inside,

I'm strapped down, even my body and mind.

This new coffin is now my new bed,

I realized I can't be woken up because I'm already dead.
