Hallucinations Of A Paralysed MindA Poem by Aura DevourI wrote this after having the terrifying experience of suffering from episodes of sleep paralysis. Not up to mark but I tried to paint a picture of what felt so real to me.
Can you stop these nightmares
Paralyzing my senses? Depriving me of the dreams That decorate a dreamer's eyes. The monster is in my mind Inducing doses of fear into my system. I can feel the adrenaline gushing, I try to reach out but receive no help. The monster is supposed to be under the bed. What is it doing inside my head? I feel claustrophobic, Entrapped in my lifeless body. I feel cold as darkness surrounds me. Everything appears unreal. Can anybody hear me ? I am choking on my own words. Surreal figures linger around And I am scared to open my eyes! I am struggling to breathe, Fighting against the fear. As my heart pumps faster And time passes slower, Opening my mouth to call out But I barely manage to whisper. Can anybody hear me? I am choking on my own words. Creating fear in my senses. I'm hallucinating demons weighing down on me! Can anybody save me ? Somebody please? Cause I am losing control ! I am losing my mind to an illusion. © 2016 Aura DevourAuthor's Note
