Final Breaths

I heard dry rustling  Stench burned my eyes Pain numbed my mind My carcass perched On the edge of my grave Pale and faded Dry as a twig Soulless Like forgotten pages Of forbidden books Winds crackled my skin And I saw my existence Flaking and tumbling Down my body And pooling around me Like...

Devilry of the Darkness

DarknessThis blood-sucking leechDevours everythingBit by bit Licking it To the last crumb Like a bucket full of firefliesEbb into oblivionAs if they were merelyA pinch of glitter Just as blue inkDrags the sunBy its clawsAnd swallows itEveryday... All darkness doesIs feed on the lightTo get darker...  … .. Copyright © 2021 stoneronarollercoaster – All rights reserved...

Lunatic – Poetry

Those magical nights are back again When the sky hypnotize me And stars devour my sanity I lose track of time As I lay on the sky above And count waves of the ocean Glowing below, as they charge To the lonely shore And I look at passing cars They look like fireflies Going home...

Darkness #writephoto #poetry

The sky thundered in my throat And clouds tased someone on the horizon Baffled raindrops fell in my coffee Maybe they were trying to help me I was drinking tar, thick bitter sour... The darkness hovered over the town Sending people to their homes Like ants crawling back into their holes And here I was,...

Late-night Poem

Is it midnight Or afternoon My day is just starting And clouds veiled the moon That sneeze was the virus? Or dust being mischievous Or maybe it was nothing That mind trick was villainous And who is tapping Tapping on my door Or it was a random noise From the ceiling or floor I can't...

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

If you are not a fan of Sylvia Plath I suggest you skip this one. In few words this book is only novel, a semi-biography written by Sylvia Plath and basically a narration of her downward spiral, covering her suicide attempts and hospitalization. If you know anything about her life and her writing, it’s going...

A Poet’s Voice

I just opened The Bell Jar and air swirled in a dark cave of my mind, actually one of many dark caves. But this one is special. This one is pristine. No dust, no spiders, no webs. It’s like a clean portal with darkness of a black hole, that can swallow every smile on the...

Paperback Journey Updates

Around this time last year I self-published e-book version of my debut poetry collection on Amazon and it performed way better than my expectations, thanks to you all of you for that. I had a few plans for Swinging Sanity, like publishing on different websites. And a paperback version but then I got busy. Now...

O Raven..

O raven in the sky Come sit with me, don't be shy What did we do to earn this fate Why no one hears, when we cry Are we too blue, or are we too black Why can't they see us, tell me why! I'm tired of non-stop flight, I feel like giving up, I...

That’s what you mean to me..

My lids drop And I feel Your breath on my neck And hear the sound Of your lips Against my skin And I feel your hair Between my fingers Soft and damp And I swear I hear your heart beat Then you say something And laugh And my world lights up I hold you closer...
