sleep paralysis ~!~

the mind starts to drift to sleep
the world is getting fuzzy, dulled
the mind is in transition to the dream world
then mid journey simply halts

left in a daze the body is unable to move
eyes refuse to open
a scream cannot escape the mouth

a terrifying couple minutes pass
paralysed in fear unable to utter even a cry

then suddenly the body jolts awake
muscles begin to work
eyes bolt open

after a brief period of recovery the sleep process resumes
and the cycle continues
drift to sleep
paralysis
fear
awake
sleep
paralysis
fear
awake
