Tossing And Turning Poem by Billy Loving

Insanity within
Knowing not where to begin
Vision of delight
Or a mind numbing fright
Heart beating rapidly
Not knowing what happened to me
Quickening of the respiration
A time of desperation
Coldness of the sweat on the skin
Rationality growing so thin
Eyesight blurred
Uttering not a word
Silence unbroken
Nothing being spoken
Movement frozen
No course of action chosen
Thoughts racing
Images their chasing
Muscles sudden contraction
No need for action
Just a dream
As impossible as it may seem
Light all around
Nothing left to confound
What a wonderful surprise
As to my feet I rise
