Internet Disconnect

Disconnection
Broken phone lines
A digital presence has replaced our minds

We lock ourselves into our devices
Trapped by images
And letting the internet rule our lives

How did we progress so far in technology
That our self worth cannot be defined
Our good nature lost
Through our Facebook shrine

Disconnect our hearts
Desensitized by the grind
To keep up appearances
While we pretend we are fine

The world we see
Is based on what we click
Guilty of pleasures we can't admit
Not feeling anything
No pity for the poor, the dying or the sick

Empty are we
No voice to be heard
Just a font to select
Easy to ignore
  

My quote of the day

A heavy heart can still be weighed down by pebbles......

Earth 911 Articles I've Written

Why?

Growing up, I always wrote stories that I either ended up burning or ripping up out of frustration. I am starting this blog that may turn into a book, but it's just a way for me to share my amateur writing and to avoid destroying my thoughts.
