A terror

My night at home making me paralyzed with fear.

I laid down.
As tired as ever and drifted off to sleep.
It began as me "waking up" from my slumber.
I called for my mom but nothing would come out.
I tried again. Nothing. Once more. Nothing. I screamed and cried until I was dizzy. It appeared as if I was being shaken by an invisible force. Unaware of my current state of unconsciousness I screamed as my silent terror went on in my head. my concious body screamed and had awoken my mother. She tried to shake me awake but was not successful. I kept screaming and crying. Tossing and turning. I almost rolled out of bed and I woke my 1 year old sister. It was a scary time for me. Especially being 4 years old recently losing my father and being a newly older sister.
I keep having that dream in different situations. One when im a victim of bullying and cannot stand up for myself. Another where my sister is being kidnapped and I can't move.

Our voices are something we often take for granted but only when we lose them can we understand their power.
