Wake Up

8 1 1
                                    

Fear is rushing through my body

My heart is freezing of despair

Cold shivers down my spine

Trying to wake up, desperately


This has to stop, I can't take it

Breathing fast and shallow

Trying to keep it all together

Agitation is breaking my spirit


Images rushing by

I have to get out of this

Can't take this much longer

My mind switched to standby


A nightmare so horrifying

Fear and pain so deep

I have to wake up!

Except . . .


My eyes are wide open and I'm not asleep . . .
