there was a new darkness, not a shadow–more like a silhouette. it was the disconnect between a mother and her unveiled child. this was the loss

Fa and Ni were standing around the stable chatting with each other, when of all people…Ha AND Go came!
“Fa,” said Ha.
“Ni,” said Go.
And, together, “IF YOU KIDS KEEP BEING IRRESPONSIBLE AND SITTING OUT TALKING ALL DAY THEN WE WILL DISCONNECT YOU TWO!!!”
“Oh, no,” Ni gasped. “Not disconnected!”
HAHA! FAFA! FAHA HA FA GO NI HA!

i am disconnected with society, everything i feel is like a different enigma that nobody but myself is able to understand. when i look at people around me i dont see equals, but miracles. miracles that somehow found a way to survive and not be me. i have no idea how anyone else works. i am disconnected

The moment when I panic and scream: when my internet disconnects and I’m right in the middle of something important.

disconnect reminds me of all the calls that get disconnected when you are in the middle of something important – a piece of news, a funny story or juicy gossip…
Simran
once in my dream we were both alligned.
we sat on that orange couch drinking coffee in whispers.
hoping today would be the day our understanding was reality.
for a moment i thought we were together.
for a moment i thought we were certain of eachother.
but we soon became disconnected.
and i am scared for you.
i am scared for me.
saetia
I loved you. Now I don’t. Leave. Me. Alone.

disconnect me, dearest day,
the branches, the beasts, and the the bay,
oh new england, oh the hudson!
what am i in relation to you,
but a broken, fragmented thought.
krislyn
how do we stay so separate? Why can’t we come together? Our lives our entwined, but we never, ever connect on anything that matters. Why the disconnect?
Sue
disconnecting is so annoying i hate it it bothers me and then when my internet doesn’t start again i can’t write on msn to my friends anymore and it ALWAYS happens in the middle of an important conversation grrrrrr. it makes me angry and then i think of red/anger i love the colour red but it’s always so angry!!! hmmmmm oooh now the light bar thing on the top is read TIME UP.
merr
I think at some point during the day it is vitally important for us to disconnect. Shut down the brain and let go. Tap into that higher realm of thought where we can escape the trials of everyday life and find a better understanding of ourselves. Then go ahead and connect back into reality…you’re day will certainly improve.
Dan
i feel completely disconnected with everything and everyone. nothing is connected the way it’s supposed to be. i’m gone. i’m away from everything. nothing makes sense the way it’s supposed to. i guess that runs in my family, sadly. i feel alone in a crowded room, and i continue using these cliches to describe how i’m feeling. i can’t take it anymore. i wish i understood what was wrong. i can’t handle this anymore.
Katie
the moments in my classroom when my students give me the most blank stare i’ve ever seen. it is the single most disconcerting incident in a classroom. fuck misbehavior and drugs and slutty teenage girls. i think i’ve done an amazing job explaining to them exactly the causes of such and such a war and there’s this disconnect where they look at me like nothing has ever made less sense to them– like i’m an alien and they need one of those babel fishes to stick in their ears.
sarah
we disconnect from life when we have been assaulted as a child and it takes a loving hand to reconnect us as an adult sometimes the road is long and we try to connect by using unhealthy coping such as substances.
susie
you’re talking to the person who means the world to you but you are separated by miles. these few minutes that you get to talk to them are very important to you, and then you get that diconnection.. its not clicking the way it did before, and you are left with no words to tell them. you’re scared of breaking their heart.
Lisa
my brain is coming apart, and i am not sure what to think about life. I feel that on a cloudy, rainy day, there is no one to be here with me. My dog by my side, i sit in silence and attempt homework, while my thoughts drift between girls and money.
Mondo
being disabled from the computer. A person leaving another person for something more gratifying. Being left alone to ones own devises. Not being around any person for a long period of time. Being much away from everyone else. Alone.
Kodie
I don’t remember the last time I saw megan. Her scarf flapped in the breeze, blood red against the gray clouds of winter. I told myself it wasn’t over, that I’d see her again – It couldn’t be over, could it? But maybe deep down I knew something wasn’t right. As she waved goodbye out the train window
Kendall
i am disconnect, from all that i once knew. from all that i was before. Everything has changed. We dont live here anymore. The seasons have all changed and the colors are disappearing.
talentless
Do you ever feel disconnected to the rest of life? Like you are walking out of time? Have your feet ever stumbled because you forgot the rhythm that we take as second nature? There are times that I can not connect to the world. When I am out of sync. A stranger.
thali
Unplug power cords. Disconnect from society, leave behind, forget about. undo trailer hitches.

/disconnect between two people. Sometimes is emotional, sometimes it’s verbal. Somehow, wires get crossed, the message is distorted, and someone ends up hurt, whether they are willing to admit it or not.
It’s only by maintaining as much verbal acuity as possible can you overcome a disconnect. It’ll make your life much richer knowing you are being true.
Kate
I walked along the path for several minutes before I realized what was really bothering me. Since we had left the house, headed for the lake, his whole demeanor had changed. He now seemed distant, disconnected from the rest of the family. Why hadn’t I noticed this sooner?
Bliss
turn off the damn computer. quit withdrawing. talk to someone. see their face. hear their inflection, their voice. its amazing how much we think the internet connects us. in reality, it just continues to separate us more effectively from each other, as if we didn’t do that enough already.
Nick
disconnection is a painful process of separation of two or more linked objects or items. Disconnection is like being separated from life, from earth, from your loved ones. Disconnection can be also the loss of internet connection.
Private
many things can disconnect. you can become disconnected from friends, family, loved ones. you can disconnect your phone, or your electronics. it is typically regarded as a bad thing, but sometimes disconnecting can be good.

Billowing. Trees. Leaves. Clothes. I stared out the window at the people walking by in the rainstorm, ignoring him screaming behind me. We were at a disconnect. I couldn’t win, he couldn’t win.

I disconnected the phone from my brother. I stopped the conversation. To disconnect is to end. I am disconnecting from this word…now………….
Avi
If you disconnect from the world around you, you have the time to reflect on what you want. If you walk through a crowded street with all the people staring blankly and going about their days wondering what to feed their families for dinner, you can stop and read yourself and what you really want. take the time to disconnect from thoughts, from reality, from time and space, and realize how you feel when there’s nothing at all.
alyssa
My mind was disconnected. I couldn’t think, or move, or function. The thought of……him was taking up all of my thoughts, and consuming my feelings. It was drowning me in love.
Marly
I was quickly Disconnected from you like a pay phone in a storm.
We weren’t suppose to do this.
But you know i can’t help my self either way.
I thought you’d understand.
I knew you would.
Don’t hate me for this, please.
You know i still want you around.
Caroline
your computer and go outside, you need to breathe the air, you need to feel the sunshine, take your shoes off for a while. You don’t realize how beautuful it all is, you must disconnect now. Do you hear? Now. Its too wonderful.

from the world we disconnect, we disconnect from relationships, the internet, and life itself. we unplug and and shut down. we do not understand. we disconnect
