Silent and Dark
Not sure if I'm breathing,
Are my eyes open?...
No one else is here...
No one I can see.
Darkness...
Nothing, but darkness,
No noises coming from elsewhere,
No noises coming from me...
Am I breathing?
I can't move to feel around...
Am I standing?
I try to sigh
To make a noise,
But I can't
I struggle and try to move,
But nothing happens...
My body tingles, but remains still...
I try to scream, but my mouth dares not utter,
As if thinks it ought not to.
Am I dying?
Am I already dead?
Try as I might, nothing happens...
I am not dreaming...
I know that I am awake
And I am afraid...
Finally,
I sit up with a start,
Nearly screaming,
Close to crying,
My body aching...
I've just escaped the terrible Grip,
That only by analogy,
Can be described:
Sleep Paralysis...
Is like
Oblivion...

I've had troubles with sleep paralysis for quite a while. When I wake up like that, I listen to Myuuji's: Scent Of Night to help me calm back down...
