Where am I? What happened? Why can’t I see? Why can’t I feel? Why am I laying in this bed? I sense all of you around me... I try to wake but nothing seems right I’m trying so hard, putting up a fight I remember one thing as I awoke for a second Mumbling “I’m scared” Then falling back into deep sleep Why can’t I move or stay awake How much time has passed for heavens sake I’m so confused I’m screaming for help But no one can hear me As my body is just a shell From deep within I can do anything I want But from your perspective I’m just a sleeping *** One thing is.... I got to see my family and friends who have passed on Telling me they love me, to hang in there Stay strong To everyone looking at me while I lay in this bed Give me some time, I’m trying to escape this shell of my body I’m still alive, not dead....
I wrote this from the perspective of someone who is in a coma. What they feel and or hear even though they can’t physically respond.
