Digital Damage
A poem about the strange digital world we live in.
I think we each need a stronger backbone
and must commit to taking time away from the cell phone.
Call me old fashioned,
but I never could have imagined
how digitally addicted we've steadily grown.

Something visited at night
I used to experience disturbing paranormal events as a teenager, but thankfully they stopped as I grew older. When I was around 20 years old, I started having vivid nightmares and episodes of sleep paralysis when sleeping in my bedroom at home. I would wake up unable to move, feeling a heavy pressure on my chest, and see terrifying visions of shadowy figures approaching me. My parents told me it was just sleep paralysis, but it kept happening frequently and felt very real.
