Paralyzed

Do you ever feel like you’re paralyzed in time?
Frozen in a moment.
Life is still moving around you.
But you can’t feel the ground beneath you
And you can’t seem to find
Anything to hold onto to fast forward or rewind.
So, you’re trapped in a place with no clear escape.
Stuck in the feeling of fight or flight
Can’t trust your own mind to know day from night
The world you once knew is still collapsing
While you sit there still trying to fill gaps in
From moments lost and time taken
While you got through live constantly faking
Faking the smile that you’ve moved on and healed
While underneath the trauma and pain are concealed
Still paralyzed in time
But on the exterior, looking fine
