Bound
I am in a world not entirely my own.
 
 I am unable to move. Unable to speak.
 
 The line between dreams and reality have been blurred. 
 
 Neither myself nor the one I yearn to be.
 
 The middle ground where there is nothing, but empty thought.
 
 Things there do not exist nor will they ever.
 
 There is no way out. I wander to no avail.
 
 I panic. What will I do?
 Am I forever lost in this middle world?
 
 Screams escape my throat. Frustration.
 
 Tears stream down my face.
 Sadness.
 
 A smile plays on my lips.
 Satisfaction.
 
 The corners of my mind bind me to the things unreal.
 
 Feelings return to my limbs. I can speak once more. 
 
 "Congratulations. You are free to go"
