Adam Hollingsworth Poems

For years now,
Or so it seems.
I spoke my mind,
But I forgot how.
...

I am from…

I am from many lost jobs and a dreamer’s reality,
Torn over failed relationships and betrayed friendships,
...

The feelings that the wind stir.
Is it for love? Are you sure?
Fluttering open, it fly’s
Away. Franticly watching,
...

I can’t help but feel
Like I am tainted
If only I could peal
My hurt away,
...

Sometimes I laugh
Just to hear the sound.
Play pretend
That we are happy,
...

If I look inside my soul,
I would find you, staring back.
Eyes so pure and beautiful,
And a lonely soul, cursed in longing.
...

My old friend,
I can’t wait to speak
With you again.
The rose within my soul,
...

Bow down to the one you pay taxes to.
Worship the faceless deity we call
Government.
The soulless thief,
...

The dream of beholding,
Your round, withered beauty.
With magnetic attraction,
Of Aristotle’s profound deity.
...

The mood stabilizer, and
Crushed air.
The hurt of thoughts, for
Our songs of care.
...
