On Into The Night Poem by Adam Hollingsworth

Most days I seek wisdom inside your heart
The heart of liars that cheat from the start
The roses never reach to them as we walk,
On into the night
And sometimes I sing
Outright and downright to fright

Hopelessly they come to me
Holding regrets under they’re feet
Seeking cover from the world beyond
For they’re nights are long
Longer than supposed under the passage of time
For a wrong mind is a strong mind, I know it’s fine

Alone they eat their meals in sour taste
For I know, because my are sour and waste
A waste of breathless air
Inside my lungs tainted in tobacco
The cigarettes lend my nights a friend
Long lonely nights, they have always gotten me through them

So, again I sit with cigars and marijuana
Maybe speed if I don’t want to sleep
I write along the passage of being alone
All night long it will go on
And now we part our ways for I am in haste
Leave me be, and take your hate

Oh god, what a waste you are to me
For I have given up, now let me be
