My poem about me experiencing a partial seizure
Mon, 05/10/2010 - 08:05Topic: Creative Corner
Frozen In Time
I cannot speak, I cannot move
I can only watch and listen
While others 'round me frantically
fear the worst to me has happened
Please! I scream within my mind
I'm right here don't panic so.
I might appear absent here,
just look in my eyes you'll see.
I'm locked between then and now,
time moves on around me.
While I can see and I can hear,
all that's going on.
I can't react so all can see,
I'm trapped in another realm.
Soon I know I'll again be free,
to move about and react.
But for now, I have to wait
until this trap has passed.
Frozen here for now I am,
unable to react.
While everything around me moves,
I lay appearing unresponsive,
Frozen as if in fear, but soon
I'm back as if nothing ever happened.
Frozen In Time is a scary thing,
For all who have been through it.
Life around you moves along, and
you're trapped for just a moment.

Hi, I write a lot of poetry and have a similair poem about my partial seizures. I really liked this, it was well written and made me feel a little less alone. that's the perfect way of putting it...frozen in time...hopefully you experience these less and less. good luck!
