Just allow yourself to get into a comfortable position A place where you simply relax And let go. A place where you can easily just Follow my words Deeply Easily Completely And just let them all slip into your mind More and more deeply More completely Letting everything fade away With each and every word That you hear As your body simply starts to relax You feel your mind simply start to… Sink Sink Sink Deeper and deeper All the way down Down into a nice Deep. Hypnotic… Sleep… It’s so easy for you to do that for me. You’ve done it so many times before Just relax. And sleep. And let go now… And as you do, the world around you simply… Fades away And a new world starts to form. You find yourself at a party A gathering among friends Maybe people you know Maybe people you are familiar with. Or maybe you were brought along By one person And everyone else here is Very much new to you Very much a stranger Waiting to become a friend You can take a moment to look around the room To let everything sink in To let the people there form in your mind Letting yourself see who they are. How they are dressed And what they are doing. As you look around the room Standing in the far corner Holding your drink Just looking around Watching everyone Just getting the feel for the party Getting a feel for who everyone is You can’t help but notice someone On the far end of the room They look like they are doing much the same thing As you are Just leaning against the wall and watching But there is something strange About them. Not so much about them in particular But their posture Their pose Their position Their drink is half was raised to their mouth Their mouth appears to half open Like they are ready to receive the drink But they… seem to have stopped Just standing there. Staring down at their drink Like they are waiting for it to come to them But it never does. You can’t help but look them over Their clothing Their appearance Just completely… still Unmoving. Unresponsive to the party around them. No one else seems to have noticed They all just seem to keep going on with their conversations After all, why would anyone notice on person Leaning against the wall In the distance. In front of them, a group of people are talking Three people The one with their back to you is the one telling a story Animated and excited. While the other two look on Listening Smiling And laughing But then you notice… That one of them just seems. To stop… Mid laugh Their head tilted back a bit Their mouth open in a big Laughing grin But they just seem to … pause Seem to come to a stop. The other two with them don’t seem to notice They just keep going on. That is until the other listener Seems to blink And smile And lean in a bit Extending their arm in a flirty fashion to touch the person talking But they never make it that far. Instead of getting close to them They seem to just stop Mid way to touching them Their hand extended awkwardly Reaching out to touch the person they were going to flirt with But they never made it. They simply seemed to go… on pause. The person speaking, can’t help but finally notice What has happened to their audience. They seem to stop And look at the person to their right The one trying to give them a touch They seem to lean in to ask if they are ok. And the notice the other one has not moved either They seem to look from one person to the next Confused They raise their hand up and wave it in front of each Of the now frozen audience And then snap their fingers Twice in front of the person to the left that froze first And then on in front of the person to the right. And then you notice… Their hand has stopped moving, mid snap. They simply stand there. Starting at the frozen person to their right Completely frozen themselves… Without ever figuring out what was going on. All of them just… Stopped… Helpless… Unthinking… Unmoving… Completely frozen. But why? Of course before that question can be answered The rest of the party seems to finally become aware That something has happened That something is… happening. One or two people start to stop their conversations And point at the four Frozen figures A few people seem to laugh One person asks if this is an impromptu, flash freeze gag Like they do in malls, just to be artsy But no one really seems to know what is going on. Two, brave individuals Start to move towards the frozen display They both seem to have the intention Of messing with the people they think… Are just playing. One of them licks their pinky finger And goes to stick it into the ear Of the frozen story teller. Only to get an inch away And then simply… Stop At the same time, the other person Moves behind the person who was frozen Mid flirt And goes to cop a feel of their butt. But again they get within mere inches And then simply… Pause. stopping . Their bodies in positions that would make it Nearly impossible to hold for any length of time Just… Stopped. And then someone else notices. That… They don’t appear to be breathing. They don’t appear to be blinking They are simply Stopped. One of the party goes starts to freak out And starts to run for the door But just as they get there And grab the door knob They stop… Their clothes ruffled in move movement Holding the door knob Just… Stuck And also… Blocking the door. Another person panics as well… And steps back Looking around frantically Until they spot a telephone On the wall in the kitchen Just off of the room where the party is being held. Without a moments hesitation They move Towards the phone. Reaching out for it Only to stop Mid stride Inches from the phone Their body suspended On one foot Leaning forward in and unsustainable pose Unable to move Unable to react. Just… Stopped… The remaining party goers look around at each other You can’t help but see the different Emotions on display Some are nervous Some are curious Some are excited But none seem to realize that there is A pattern To what is happening That whatever is making the party goers Simply stop… Simply freeze Is moving across the room Directly towards you… And the remaining guests One of the guests simply turns to the rest of you, as they walk Towards the others, Looking at you as they shuffle backwards Commenting that it’s all just a gag A very well, set up… But they never finish their sentence Their body seems to stop Their mouth frozen in the middle of what they were saying Their arms out showing how expressive they were, How active they had been just seconds ago But now they are just Stopped… And frozen The remaining two guests look at one another And then at you The one closest to the rest of the frozen people Seems to ask What the heck is going on And then turns to look at the rest of the group You wait for them to say something Wait for them to move To step forward But nothing happens It takes you both a moment To realize they already froze. The last remaining guest Confused and not really thinking Extends their hand to shake the person But as soon as they touch their shoulder They just… Stop… The party is quiet The room is still Almost like it’s empty It’s just you now Just you and the frozen party goers You take a moment to look down at your drink cup Still in your hand And set it down You turn to look back at the room But as soon as you do You notice your body just seems to Stop… No movement You mind is still Your aware of the room around you Aware of the frozen party goers Some frozen in mid sentence Some with a look of enjoyment A look of concern Some stuck in mid movement Some in the middle of an action Their eyes just seem to be… Blank… And empty Unseeing Completely still Completely paused Just… Like… You… And here you will stay… For how long is up to you Just leaving your mind Empty and blank Letting the surrounding images The surrounding people All just filter in Into your mind Into your thoughts Aware of every person Their pose Their expression Their blank empty eyes. Just like you are aware of your own pose Your own expression And your own blank empty eyes. You will stay here for a time And when you are ready Ready to wake up. You will simply allow yourself To start to move Maybe the other pary goers start to move as wel Or maybe it is just you Free to explore the party Whichever it is When you are ready to wake up Simply let yourself take a deep breathe And come back up If you need to You can simply count from 1 To 3 And tell yourself to wake up. And if you are interested,k There is a longer Version of this trance On my patreon account Link in the description. But for now… Simply let yourself rest And relax And enjoy being frozen Frozen in time Empty and blank
