Trapped in stone and numbing cold
I fight a coma's stranglehold
Yet ignorance will pay the toll
the horror of a silenced soul

The stillness of my body hides
explosive pent up longing inside
For what I feel, and you don't see,
my mind retains its clarity

Grace grants me not the smallest twitch,
each tortured itch brings needle pricks
Time is now my enemy,
Its ticking, mocking misery

My mind screams with vibrant energy,
In this prison bound by the shell of me-
Bursting with feral need, cruel freedom seen,
yet still, it cannot be.
