Craig Turner Poems

What was once full of colour,
Reflects back in black and white,
Little letters lodged away,
As if to be found some day,
...

I think your missing the point,
Lips up to the sky,
As she found out your lies,
No turning back,
...

The raptureous applause you deserve,
Doesn't go unnoted,
The strength to leave the familiarity,
Shouldn't go unnoticed,
...

We test our goodbyes,
In the mirror each day,
Dont look yourself within the eyes,
Cant face a new surprise.
...

I havent felt the urge,
To self destruct when I should,
I cant shake you loose,
Maybe I just dont want to,
...

A boring nightmare,
Keeps me from sleep,
The whip that cracks,
Shatters his back,
...

Its sad that you stand out as a good guy,
Amongst the repentant and vengeful,
You know your blue,
Scattered through fields of red,
...

She’s An Old Man

She’s an old man,
Murderee and junkie
...

Rush to buy flowers,
The statement on sentiment,
Suggesting new horizons,
Salvaging blossoms to resurrect sorrow,
...

I must reiterate this is co-written with the lovely and talented Sara Tehrani.............................

I don’t think he knows his affect on my smile
...

Walking with your thoughts,
A steady pace of ideas,
Obstacle then another in time with the birdsong,
Overwhelming imagination,
...

A source to plot out the dots,
Pictures causing unrest,
Is it any of our business,
Maniplate to cause interest,
...

‘’Schadenfreude’’

There’s no misery like the misery of others,
For you to bask in such joy,
...

Finding recipes,
List the ingredients on yellow lined paper,
Someones building,
A cake for another,
...

I proceed to be sick,
Which always makes me vomit,
Then somone rang a bell,
Looked at me and said your drunk go to bed,
...

There was a knock at door,
I came too see,
But noone appeared,
I ventured and finally became ensnaired,
...

Recreationally i've been wasting time,
Minding my own business,
Reaching out for fresh air,
Closing your eyes to inhale,
...

18.

His integrity he plunders,
Without grace,
Hitting the floor in fields of thunder,
Glimpse his disgrace,
...

A phone call,
A mispaced message,
Thoughts of something another,
A square peg in the round hole,
...

A scene worth while a crack and split,
A barrels apparel bent over,
Two little ticks leave the clock,
To make a sea water tear,
...

The Best Poem Of Craig Turner

A Little Light

What was once full of colour,
Reflects back in black and white,
Little letters lodged away,
As if to be found some day,
We used to dream,
Time has disregarded me,
The only dreams left come with sleep.

Angry and miserable,
Dumbed down and synical,
Any sign of success were overly critical.

A little light,
Goes a long way.

Bitterness tears holes in the chair,
Signs of an angry young man,
Frustrated and lonely,
What might have been,
What should have come,
Dreams fade away,
Asleep in the chair alone with his chance to dream


A little light goes a long way................

Been a pleasure to know this guy... His poetry has inspired me in so many ways... Its inspired me to go that extra mile, and not be afraid of writing in free association style. Ive really enjoyed writing 'Eventually I meet Immediate peril' mixing my style with his. He's an awesome writer... :)
