Unihalvaus

Eyes open
Barely cracked
But when you try to move

Suddenly you feel the tingle
In the failing limbs
Panic
Forcing your air to leave
Constricting ribs
Unable to breathe

Close your eyes tight
Try to relax
Finally remember
How to inhale
Slowly flex your toes
Regain control
Sit up from bed
Feeling like someone
Something
Was sitting on your chest
