Feet of Clay

I'm somewhere in between night and day, Stuck in between a dream and a nightmare. I can't move both feet feel like they're clay, I'm somewhere in between night and day. The sun isn't bright it's dull and quite gray, It's so mesmerizing that I continue to stare, I'm somewhere in between night and day, Stuck in between a dream and a nightmare .

This makes me think of how I feel when I'm up all night with insomnia, excellent last line too!

That was really amazing. Bravo to you for doing a fantastic job. Sometimes nightmares are frighteningly realistic, this going to my fave Alexis. Blessings and hugs.

I'm with Chris Green. This is superb, Alexis. I like how 'feet of clay' goes with 'stuck b/t night and day.' --- Not that I want feet of clay myself, mind you. :) gw
