Silent Silkworms

I fell asleep
Drifting gently, to the land of dreams
And they, for a change
Were mostly pleasant
I awoke
Feeling umusually relaxed
And at peace
In fact my bed
Felt more comfortable, than usual
As if the bedcovers
Were made of the finest silk
I lay there for a while
Daydreaming, engaging within the harmony of existence
Only disturbed
By the sense, my bed was moving
I opened my eyes
It was pitch black
Yet i always sleep with soft light
Perhaps the light was momentarily lost
I tried to reach out, yet couldn't move
I gradually began to panic
Wandering if, i'd fallen down a rabbit hole
So small
I felt caged, captive
My arms barely able to move
My 'bed' moved again
I now began to panic
Clawing at the soft silken 'bedsheet'
Suddenly realising my reality
As i was slowly lowered
Into a hole in the ground
No one heard my screams
